Hi
there was an article sometime back ( air pictorial ?) or aviation news that had info and photos on the a/c.
The opinion was it was shot down by a luftwaffe a/c, ( can't recall which type ) and that due to the visual conditions it would have been difficult to indentify the civilian markings.
cheers
