Posted by Marko Trebušak 29.11.2012 @ 10:37

This bomber was hit by a German FLAK over ocupied Maribor in year 1944. Pilot managed to bring it to Croatioan island of Vis, where Yugoslav Parizans maitained a emergency runway. Airplane was bady damaged and so pilot landed on the sea. Crew survived, only deadly wounded navigator was left in the plane. Photo was taken by underwater photographer Borut Furlan, who also told me the story of this aircraft.

 

Print was made as pure palladium in size 26x37cm
