The machine was NOT shot down by AA. When an emergency landing with engine flip
Crew:
Lt. G.C. LOGAN (pilot) AFC - POW
Logan was a Canadian from Peterborough Ontario who simply got lost and strayed way to the south, to Loan, where he was attacked by 3-4 Fokker DR.1 Triplanes and forced to land (FTL) crashed. There are photos of his slightly bent B619 ‘E’ on the internet. Credit for his ‘SE5’ given 'diesseits' was accorded to Js 13’s Vfw Joercke, but it looks as if Js 12’s Vfw Neckel also put in a bid.
