Is anyone able to identify a likely candidate, please, for a He111 attacked by two Spitfires of 41 Squadron approx. ten miles north of Flamborough Head at 19:10 on 10 April 1941?

The aircraft had originally made landfall just south of Scarborough, but was chased back out to sea and eventually lost in haze with a damaged starboard engine, which was smoking and releasing oil.

On the same evening, 72 Squadron claimed one Ju88 destroyed in the sea of Alnmouth, and another probably destroyed.

These accounted for three out of four hostile plots in 13 Group between 18:45 and 21:45.

Any assistance would be appreciated, please.

Thanks
Stebe
