He-115, 1st March 1941
Hi All
Looking for some info An He-115 was hit by AA fire and landed in the sea off Whitehills (Aberdeenshire). This is on 1st March 1941 and Part of Kampstaffel 2./KG26 1H +BK Any details on the crew? or any more info one source says He 111 In 1977 Hatto Kuhn described flying his damaged Heinkel 111 1H+BK out to sea from the Moray Firth before deciding that they would never make the return to base and instead turned it round and finally ditched in the Firth. It made me wonder about the Luftwaffe's air-sea rescue setup in the more northerly North Sea area. |
