I find it more likely his body, along with his plane, was destroyed in the artillery barrage. This wasn't uncommon.
Airmen going down over No-Man's-Land, assuming they didn't blow up, were often destroyed by shelling or in the constant movement of the front. Some cases document soldiers using them for cover, in which case they were shot to pieces.
Who knows. He's nothing but a shadow and a skeleton now.
