On the
17th February 1944 during practice flying,
Sgt Powell suffered an engine failure on approaching
to land. However he was able to successfully
crash-land his Typhoon (DP-K) in a field, short of
the runway. The aircraft was recovered, repaired and flew again.
We have updated the photo with today's view.
Our thanks to the Bulleid Family for permission
to use the original photo and to the owners of the
field for allowing us to mark out the position for the update!
Please wait while the picture loads.
