Re: Crash Landed Hurricane I

Hi Martin G,

I have the belly landing of F/Lt. James Sanders on 17.5.1940 after the claim of Ju 88.
http://www.bbm.org.uk/airmen/SandersJG.htm

There is the article and there is small info about this situation and location is Bethune:
https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/obi...y-Sanders.html

As we know, in the next days this pilot was transferred back to fly Gloster Gladiator - probably punishment from commanding officer, that this pilot lost his valuable Hurricane in France and fly back to England - is there any other info?
