Narrative:
Spanish Fury was shot down in combat with FIAT CR.32. The Fury suddenly attacked a Junkers Ju-52 escorted only by Presel's CR.32. Both quickly engaged in a dogfight that led the Fury to lose engine (it is not clear if this was due to fuel starvage or fail in propeller sinchronicity with machine-guns). The Fury piloted by Sergeant Félix Urtubi Ercilla was forced to emergency land with no damage for the aircraft. Presel's CR.32 effectively was fuel starved and was forced to land in Portugal. The Fury was exhibited as a Nationalist trophy in Badajoz and flew with them until the end of war. Urtubi could reach his lines and scaped.
