The Bf109 is the aircraft of Wilhelm Meyerweissflog, of JG 53, and was taken on Gurnsey.
He was 51 years old !
After returning from leave, on 5th September 1940, he decided to 'follow the boys', and set out on a free-lance patrol. He was shot down, and crash-landed at Monkton Farm, near Manston, not having a clue where he was.
