VOUNG PILOT WHO DAMAGED DORNIER NOTABLE PAIR OF BROTHERS. TITANIC DIVE TO DESTROY HEINKEL. (British Official Wireless.) i Received This Day, 1.55 p.m.) RUGBY. April 1. The pilot of the R.A.F. fighter which badly damaged a Dornier 17 over the North Sea on Sunday had not before been in action with the enemy. His first experience is as satisfactory as that of his brother, who is also his squadron-leader, who last month, also in a first engagement, carried out a similar titanic dive of about, three miles to bring down a Heinkel over the mouth of the Thames.
