I've just checked the Schnaufer book, too - 'his' Lancaster that night crashed into the sea so it does look as though 'J-Johnnie' did fall to Vinke's guns.

Interestingly, the director of the Wickenby Museum has invited me up there next Friday to view the museum and the wreckage of this aircraft.( [img]smile.gif[/img] )
