This fighterplane (a Focke Wulf 190) was stationed here as a part
of the occuping german forces,but was downed by british fighterplanes
and crashed in the ocean.It was recovered from the sea in 2006.
The film behind is authentic footage from 1940-45 from this place.

A fascinating capture. It seems to have a life, like an injured bee. BV
