| This aircraft crashed after spinning in on landing. No fatalities. It was completely wrecked but was sold as an insurance write-off by Lloyds to a chap in High Wycombe. He stripped out the avionics and I had the rest. Started to rebuild it but ran out of money and inclination. Eventually the wreck was purchased by a chap at Southend Airport to use for spares (this was back in 1982) | |
