Blenheim Accident at Duxford

Posted by Mark Haselden on Mon Aug 18, 2003 05:38:28 PM

Dear All,

Just heard on the local TV news that the Blenheim suffered a wheels-up landing at Duxford at around 8-30pm this evening. Thankfully, the 2 POB walked away from the aircraft unhurt. No news yet as to the extent of damage to the airframe. The usual trashy reporting (with full attention-getting phraseology "the aircraft belly-flopped"), repleat with references to the Firefly tragedy. Sorry to be the bearer of bad news - but at least there are no human casualties.

Regards,
Mark
