HAL JP336
var nødt til at nødlande på havet (måske omkring
her
nordøst for Gjerrild på Djursland)
den 24. april 1945.
"Den 23. april 1945 kl. 20.15 lettede F/O
Lawrence Barclay Davey fra Stornoway i HAL JP336. Ved
midnat opdagede flyet en tysk konvoj fra Norge, og under det første angreb blev
flyet svært beskadiget af flak.
Davey forsøgte at nå land, men ca. 1 sømil
(måske omkring
her)
nordøst for Gjerrild på Djursland
(Gjerrild Fyr
her) måtte flyet lande på vandet, hvor det holdt sig
flydende i brændende tilstand i en halv
time. Fra land blev branden observeret,
men ingen sejlede til undsætning." (FT 91-10-54)

HAL JP336 had to ditch in the Kattegat (maybe about
here
northeast of Gjerrild in Djursland)
on 24 April 1945.
"F/O
Lawrence Barclay Davey took off from Stornoway in HAL JP336
on 23 April 1945 at 20:15.
At midnight the plane spotted a German convoy from Norway, and the plane was
heavily damaged
by flak
during the first attack. Davey tried to reach land, but
the plane had to ditch about 1 nautical mile
(maybe about
here) northeast of Gjerrild in Djursland
(Gjerrild Lighthouse
here). It floated, burning, for half an hour.
The fire was seen from land, but
nobody sailed out to their rescue." (FT 91-10-54)
