Re: USN flying boat loss - early summer 1918 - North Sea
It seems that the trawler 'Neutraal' was not only involved in this water plane mystery of June/July 1918 but also in the still not resolved ditched seaplane of 17 July 1919 with pilot Murphy..
This pilot was picked up by a passing Dutch freighter and put ashore in N.Germany, while the 'Neutraal' salvaged the engine of this also still unknown airplane.
Regards,
Leendert
