The Whitley was on his way to Köln but was hit by a night fighter, the damaged aircraft still managed to unload his bombs at Aachen, DE. After this bombing and during the return to England, the aircraft was hit a second time, this time by Oblt Heinrich Griese of the 1./NJG 1. This attack made the Whitley fatal.
