Aircraft shot down 28 May 1941
Hi guys,
Perusing Chris Goss' excellent Sea Eagles Volume One, I notice a loss reported on 28 May 1941, when an aircraft was shot down by RN warships escorting a convoy located north-west of the western coast of Eire. A report from the CO of HMS Tartar confirms the 'unidentified' aircraft crashing into the sea, of seeing one wing amongst the wreckage and mentions a subsequent rescue operation. Chris says there were no Luftwaffe losses. I have checked Foreman's FC losses and Ross' CC losses. Was there a BC loss? If not, what was the aircraft? A mystery!
