Lorient, France Oct 21, 1942. 9 crew POW, one evaded. POW Ewart Sconiers suffered an accident in Stalag Luft 3
and died in hospital Jan 29, 1944 and was buried 3 days later. Two months before he was taken prisoner,
Sconiers made headlines around the world for his actions in an Aug. 21, 1942 bombing raid over The
Netherlands. A German fighter plane attacked the B-17 in which he serving as bombardier, and a
shell that hit the cockpit killed the co-pilot and severely injured the pilot. Sconiers, called
to the cockpit by the pilot, pulled the co-pilot out of his seat and took the controls of the
stricken bomber. With coaching from the pilot, Sconiers landed the plane safely at the air base
in the English village of Horsham St. Faith. He was awarded the Distinguished Service Cross for his heroics.
U.S. military officials had initally concluded Sconiers had been buried in a mass grave in Lubin.
The military’s Graves Registration Service had all but abandoned any search for him by 1948 as Russian
influence closed off eastern Europe. But ongoing work by the Department of Defense POW/MIA Accounting
Agency, members of the Sconiers family and other people who became known informally as “Ewart’s Army”
traced him to the French section of a cemetery in Gdansk, Poland. American officials pursued the lead, and
after working with Polish and French officials, they were able to bring his remains back to the United States
in January of 2018.

25442 (MSN 75-2943) W/o 15 Sep 1943 at Glendale, AZ
25446 (MSN 75-2947) 6th Flying Training Detachment, Thunderbird Field, Glendale, AZ. Force landed after engine failure four miles
west of Sacaton, AZ 18Sep42. While on a routine cross country training flight the pilot noticed an excessive amount of
oil coming, apparently, from the top cylinder head. At that time there was no apparent loss of power since the
tachometer indicated normal functioning. But later he noticed a steady increase in oil temperature. After the
indicator read above the green line he cut the switch and looked for a landing spot. The pilot chose a dirt road
and attempted a landing, only to be stopped by a truck traveling very slowly and in the same direction.
He turned the switch on again and attempted to make another approach. He could not gain enough
altitude, the landing being made out of the last turn, which was very low. The pilot overshot his turn
and landed on the edge of the road, rolling approximately 150 feet before hitting a small tree on the left.
The aircraft then went into a wash (Arizona term for a ‘roadside ditch’). It nosed down, damaging the propeller,
two lower wings and the landing gear. The forced landing was caused by failure of the crankshaft ball bearing retainer.

uneventfully and came to a stop about midfield. The pilot, who was an airframe and power plant
mechanic, reported that he had recently installed the engine following a major overhaul; the airplane

another landing. Destroyed when force landed after takeoff from Freeman Field 22Nov43. The
student took off and the airplane had climbed to about 300-400ft when the instructor noticed a
loss of power from both engines, possibly caused by carburettor icing. To low and slow to manoeuvre,
the instructor landed the airplane straight ahead in a corn field three miles west of Seymour.

aircraft ahead landing normally, the pilot decided to land anyway but forgot to extend the
landing gear. The aircraft crash landed causing damage to the engine nacelles and propellers.

land at Freeman Field 7Oct43, the pilot was unable to lower the landing gear either electrically
or manually. About 45 minutes was spent in the circuit trying to lower the landing gear but a
visual check by the control tower suggested that the landing gear was jammed in the nacelle.
The aircraft crash landed, causing damage to the engine nacelles and propellers. Structural
failure of a landing gear fitting during extension had caused the landing gear to jam.

27324 (MSN 2599) 1079th Two-Engine Flying Training Squadron, Freeman Field, Seymour, IN. Mid-air
collision with Beech AT-10 42-2260 on final approach to land at Freeman Auxiliary Field #2,
St Anne, IN 13Nov43. While on base leg, the pilot noticed another airplane on the outside and
almost parallel with his traffic pattern. The pilot turned to make a normal approach.
About 50 ft from the ground, the aircraft was struck by the left engine of the airplane above,
breaking off the tail section. This airplane struck the ground hard, tearing off both engines
and the right wing. Neither occupant was seriously injured.
27326 (MSN 2601) 1079th Two-Engine Flying Training Squadron, Freeman Field, Seymour, IN. The aircraft
departed Freeman Field for a night formation flight to Franklin, IN 11Aug43. The element leader
led the flight to pass over Franklin below 1,000ft in violation of regulations and this aircraft
struck a tree, tearing off about 2.5ft of the right wing tip. The pilot left the formation and,
finding that the aircraft controls were responding normally, returned to Freeman Field for a
successful landing. Crashed after structural failure at Millport Knobs, IN 19Oct43 [1KIS:1INJ].
The student pilots decided to test the airplane to see what its limits were; they climbed to
about 10,000ft but decided not to go any higher. The pilot started a normal let-down when the
co-pilot took the controls and pushed the airplane into a steeper rate of descent. Unable to
take back control, the aircraft steepened into a vertical dive and started to disintegrate.
The pilot was thrown clear and landed safely by parachute; the co-pilot perished in the crash
and subsequent fire.

42-37493. There was a mixup when the FAA assigned incorrect Beech MSNs to
AT-11s that were registered in the late 1950s. The AFM's plane was recorded as MSN 1406,
which was 41-27561, but the FAA registration card had the USAF serial as 42-37493, with the

Accident returning from a tactical mission to Caen, France 6Jun44 (9KIA). The bomber was carrying
twelve 500 lb bombs but these were not dropped. Returning to England and presumably lost,
It ran out of fuel, crash landed in the Olde Woode at Corfe Castle, Dorset, England. The aircraft
came in low below the barrage balloons in Poole Harbour, (below 800ft) heading south and losing
altitude. The Coast Guard thought the plane had crashed on one of the islands
in the harbour. It may have been that they intended to ditch into the water as several inflated
life jackets were recovered. Possibly the aircraft didn't lose sufficient airspeed and ballooned
into the wood where it crash landed, exploded, and burned. Eight airmen were killed in the crash;
one survivor died later in hospital. MACR 5792.
