When returning from a Feindflug (operational sortie), the crew decided to bail out of the aircraft over the Netherlands. They came down near Eindhoven, Noord-Brabant. The crewless bomber then flew on and ultimately crashed in Germany, more than 400 kilometres from where the crew left the aircraft. The Junkers was a total loss (100%).
