Re: He 115 Shot Down by Hudson on 7 September 1940

According to a combat report in AIR 15/371 Hudson "W" from 206 Sqn attacked a He.115 forcing it to land in the water at 1950 hours 6.9.40 about 85 miles NE of Cromer.

Nothing for the following date but at 0600 hours on 8.9.40. about 45 miles NW of Texel Hudson "S" attacked and damaged a He 115. There was also a comment: "It is of interest to note that a Blenheim of No.235 Squadron saw, on the following day, two upturned floats of a Heinkel 115, in a position 3 miles on a bearing of 170 degr from this position."
