Heinkel 59 seaplane bearing red crosses shot down by Pilot Officer J
Heinkel 59 seaplane bearing red crosses shot down by Pilot Officer J. Allan of 54 Squadron over the Eastern Channel and alleged to have been used for mine - laying. It is seen here beached at Deal where it had been towed by a Navy vessel.
The Heinkel He 59 was a twin-engined German biplane designed in 1930, resulting from a requirement for a torpedo bomber and reconnaissance aircraft able to operate on wheeled landing gear or twin-floats.

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the dramatic aftermath of a Heinkel 59 seaplane being shot down by Pilot Officer J. Allan of 54 Squadron over the Eastern Channel during World War II. The aircraft, adorned with red crosses, was allegedly used for mine-laying operations. Now beached at Deal after being towed by a Navy vessel, this image offers a glimpse into the intense conflict that engulfed Europe in the forties. The Heinkel He 59 itself was an impressive twin-engined German biplane designed in 1930 to serve as both a torpedo bomber and reconnaissance aircraft. Its versatility allowed it to operate on either wheeled landing gear or twin-floats, making it an adaptable asset for wartime missions. Taken on July 11th, 1940, this photograph stands as a testament to the bravery and skill exhibited by Pilot Officer J. Allan and his squadron during one of history's most significant conflicts. It serves as a reminder of the sacrifices made by countless individuals who fought valiantly for their countries' causes.
