Re: photographs of crashed Do17 U5+DA on ebay.

"1940-05-16, Stabsst./KG 2, Do 17Z, Gelnhausen, Notlandung nach Luftkampf mit Jägern. Bruch 20 %."

Matti,

just beeing as bold to ask: if that plane went home from a mission over France why the heck did it went as far as it did inspite that a lot of airfields had been more convenient - or in other words closer - to reach for a presumed merely safe landing?
Thanks in advance for any additional infos as for details of this kite and its crew.

y/f
Norbert
