Re: Rapide G-ACPY lost 3 June 1941

Also read somewhere that Dragon was victim of a chance encounter with a He-111 returning from an abortive raid on carrier HMS Indomitable at Barrow-in-Furness shipyard.
Six Hurricanes of No 87 Squadron, detached to St Mary's on 19th May 1941, had been withdrawn only four days prior to incident.
