Oh well - perhaps it's one more of those urban myths
I have seen somewhere pics of one of the Belgian Stirlings with a collapsed undercarriage - it may have been repaired or scrapped, or just left there - wherever "there" was - perhaps this is the source of the story. The story was certainly current 15/20 years ago.
While we're at it does anybody remember the advert in an early FlyPast from a chap in Switzerland for a Whitley and a 1914 pattern Rolls Royce Armoured Car - wonder what became of them!!
