What is most remarkable is that his particular plane was shot down by a Boutlon-Paul Defiant, which due to it's rear-firing turret is perhaps the only fighter plane that could shoot down an enemy only by getting in front of the target plane.

I had always been under the impression the the B-P Defiant was something of a failure as a combat aircraft.  I guess against bombers it worked in this case.

Looks a bit rough, but probably in better shape than I'd be after being on the sea floor for 70-some years... :P

Thanks for the update!
