Was
The Berliner Tageblatt also published an account of the air duel, in which it was stated that Immelmann was shot down by three British machines.
A month after the episode n question was asked in the House
of Commons on the subject.
People were clamouring for official recognition of our own air hero. The answer was the familiar "No information is available."
Here, in brief, is Franz Im- melmann's' account
his of brother's end:-
Immelmann in his Fokker up-
proaches a group of five English machines in June 1916. Ho Area a
white signal light to warn the German "archies" to censo Bre. Ho climbs above the enemy and diver on to one of the Englishmen. He brings him down. He turns his attention to another Englishman.
Fokker suddenly rears Then bis up, comes down over the left wing, nitains a level position again and flies ahead with strange lashing movements of its tail. Then the rear part of the fuselage departs from the forepart. The cockpit hurtles into the depths with the pilot falling like a stone.
Brother's Pride
This description might well apply to a machine shot down in the nir.
The author, however, makes deductions from the official examination of the debris, and concludes that Immelmann had shot off his own propeller,
"He was unconquered to the end."
