Photo taken two days after it was written off in a forced landing at Manston although there is no obvious sign of damage in the photo. Manston was used extensively in World War II as an emergency landing aerodrome for bombers short of fuel or suffering battle damage. Photo from: National Archives at College Park, Maryland
