"[80 years ago today, t]he RAF is stepping up attacks on German airfields in Denmark and southern Norway. One Blenheim of No 110 Squadron returning from a raid on Bergen spots a Dornier reconnaissance seaplane from 2. Küstenfliegergruppe 406 and downs it southeast of the Shetlands. "

"View of the Do-18G from the Blenheim Mark-IV. Submarine U-17 rescues the crew and scuttles the seaplane with 20mm fire after towing it in proves impractical."
