Canada's War in Color

[Jon Skagfeld]

Everything that I've seen, researched and studied leads to Roy Brown.

The angle of bullet penetration in the airframe of the downed TriDekker points to hits from above, not hits from below.

I've inspected the seat from the Red Baron's plane (located in the display area of the Royal Canadian Military Institute in Toronto).

The seat clearly shows bullet penetration from above, i.e. the flaring out of the bullet hole is downward.

Whilst Australian ground fire could have contributed to further damage, no-one can tell, because the aircraft was fairly soon carved up for souvenirs. No post-accident investigation, no post mortem on the remains.
