Re: Seeking photos and info on first German a/c to crash on British soil in WW II

Thanks Ed. I wasn't aware of these websites. This 17.10.39 incident is likely to be the subject a painting for the EoE Phoney War volume, since it involved the first German a/c (a Ju88A-1) to fall on British soil. Hope we can find some contemporary photos of the wreckage, although it's likely to be little more than junk. The Humbie Heinkle came down intact after this one.

Regards,
