Re: He111 on display in UK Identification

There are other photos of the aircraft displayed elsewhere.

This is only from memory, but I seem to recall I had linked Sgt Scott with the He 111 loss on that same day at Gate House Farm, Staplecross, although 92 Squadron also seem to have had a part in that, too.

The fact that Scott saw the aircraft burning on the ground might tie in with this, although that is speculation. However, the two parachutes he saw descending may have been unrelated - if he was indeed involved with this aircraft. I think Scott also had his cockpit canopy shattered by return fire in this episode, but I cannot find his Combat Report at present. I may have filed it in my Sgt Scott file which is the loft.

Wade and Williams shot down a He 111 on which they saw a white letter 'A' on the fuselage, which would tie in with the Staplecross crash which we know to have been 1H + AH.
