a gun from the aircraft was found during a dig in the 70s which is on display at Hemswell Cliff.it is slightly bent but is in very good condition to say it was found very close to the surface of a ploughed field.intruders over Britain has details of the crash and does use the same reason for the crash as you mention without giving any further information.
