Damaged 23Jul44 in collision with P-47C 41-6202 taxying at Atcham. The aircraft crashed on
Greenway Hall Golf Course near Leek, Staffordshire August 24, 1944 after the pilot lost control
of the aircraft while performing aerobatics. The aircraft was on an instrument and aerobatics
training flight from Atcham with another P-47. After completing the instrument phase of the
flight both pilots commenced their assigned aerobatics training; while carrying out his
second Immelman the pilot lost control of his aircraft. The event was not seen by his wingman,
as by the time he realised the aircraft was missing it had already fallen into the cloud which
was at ~6,000ft. The aircraft was heard to dive at high speed and under power into the ground.
The pilot abandoned his aircraft but was killed when he opened his parachute immediately after
bailing out; this caused him to decelerate rapidly causing severe neck and spinal injuries.
He landed near to Rudyard, Staffordshire almost 5 miles from the crash site.

A B-17G from the Sioux City Army Air Field, and a P-47D from the Bruning Army Air Field collided
when the pilot of the P-47 misjudged the distance to the B-17 as he was simulating an attack
upon the formation. After impact, the P-47 spiraled out of control and struck the ground
killing the pilot. The B-17 broke apart scattering wreckage over an area of several square miles.
The forward part of the fuselage of the B-17 and the impact site of the P-47 are one mile apart
in an east-west direction. Four of the airmen in the B-17 were able to bail out and survive.
The crash took the lives of six other airmen in the B-17.

Pilot killed. The aircraft was on detachment to Millville Field, NJ for gunnery training.
The pilot was firing on Ground Gunnery Range B making his first pass on the target and started
his pull up. His plane rolled to the right, then upside down, and dove into the ground.
The plane exploded on impact throwing wreckage for 300 feet. The crash was ruled “undetermined” but
the investigators suspected either the propeller wash of the previous plane or the right ammunition
bay door came open in flight.

air show in Jamaica, 1947]. The pilot tried to land on the main road but had to swerve when a
lorry appeared. The plane had come down in the field opposite the Crown Garage. People were
running towards the plane and helped dig a hole so that they could get the pilot out as the cockpit
and front of the plane were upside down, although the rear half was the right way up. The pilot
was still strapped in his seat but was cut free and taken to Gravesend Hospital where he was
found to have a broken arm, broken rib and a nasty gash to his hand. On it's way down the plane
had hit several poles carrying the electricity supply to several properties nearby leaving
them with no power for any New Year celebrations. The aircraft had run out of fuel on its
way back to East Anglia and the pilot had tried to land on the road, not knowing that the
Gravesend airfield was only a couple of miles away. The pilot of the aircraft was returning
from a mission to provide penetration, target and withdrawal support to heavy bombers
during an attack on industrial targets in Paris, France. Due to the range and duration
of the mission, arrangements were made to refuel the squadron at Manston Aerodrome, Kent
prior to returning to their base at Leiston, Suffolk. Unfortunately there was only
sufficient fuel for nine aircraft at Manston so the remaining aircraft were given orders to
go to alternate refuelling aerodromes in South East of England.

75195 (MSN 3546) 386th FS, 365th FG, 9th AF; The pilot was a wingman during aerial combat over Bonn,
Germany when his aircraft was struck by spent .50 caliber brass cartridge casings ejected by his
leader causing damage to the engine. The pilot turned back towards allied lines with thick black
oil obscuring his vision. Suddenly the engine stopped and the pilot set up for a forced landing
in a pasture but realized too late that the aircraft would collide with a clump of trees at the
far end. As the aircraft approached the ground, the right wing stalled catching a wing tip
which sent the fighter cart-wheeling across the ground. The wreckage stopped right side up
without any wings, tail or engine. The aircraft had crash landed 400yds inside allied lines near
Athus, Belgium October 21, 1944. The pilot was slightly injured, walked across to a jeep
parked nearby and was told that he had just crossed a minefield. The pilot returned to his unit.

75216 (MSN 3567) 61st FS [HV-B bar], 56th FG, 8th AF, Halesworth, Station 365; "Charming Ellen";
Crashed after engine failure near Lippelo, Belgium November 30, 1943 [the aircraft's first operational
mission]; Pilot bailed out and taken POW, later escaped. The fighter was on a mission escorting B-17’s
and B-24’s to Sölingen, but the engine developed a vapour lock. The fighter turned for home.
Over Belgium, the problem was solved and the pilot decided to attack some ground targets.
Near Puurs he dived to the ground and strafed a train. However, he was flying so low he hit a
telegraph pole which bent the propeller blades. The pilot pulled back on the control stick and
was able to climb high enough to bail out, whilst his fighter plane plunged into a meadow at
Mariekerke. The pilot was able to escape the German occupying forces and with the help of
local Belgians, he arrived in Brussels, where he was sheltered by the underground organisation EVA.
Unfortunately, in July 1944 he was arrested in the capital and jailed. When the liberation of
Brussels took place, Bill and many other Allied airmen were locked in a train, from which they
finally managed to escape. The wreckage was recovered by the BAHA archeaology team July 21, 2001
and the engine is on display at the Brussels Air Museum. One of the men watching the recovery
was the pilot; he returned home with the items he touched the last before baling out, parts
of his control stick and his seat belt. MACR 1542.

A flight of P-47s was returning from an aerial gunnery mission, which took them just north of
NAS Wildwood. They encountered some Navy F4U Corsairs and proceeded to dogfight with them.
This practice was routine, but strongly condemned by both the Army and Navy. The official records
make no mention of the Navy planes, but witnesses on the ground observed the entire event. They
claim that the plane began to smoke during a high-speed maneuver with the Corsairs. Officially,
the pilot noticed smoke coming from the engine while over the coastline and headed for NAS Wildwood
to make an emergency landing. The pilot said in his statement “I headed for Wildwood Navy Field
and as I passed over the coast, I could see smoke coming from the engine. I checked all engine
instruments and as far as I could remember they were within green limits. About one mile from
Wildwood, some oil was thrown on the windscreen. At this time the smoke looked too bad for a forced
landing and my flight leader instructed me to bail out. I rolled the ship upside down in a stall
and dropped out. My right leg hit the tail and was cut slightly. Several seconds later the chute opened.”
75488 (MSN 3839) 135th Base Unit, 1st AF, Millville Field, NJ; Force landed 3Jan45 with mechanical
failure at Millville, NJ. Accident during a ground gunnery mission and destroyed 7 miles SW of
Millville, NJ March 13, 1944. The pilot was flying number three position; the number four
man was late in taking off, so they proceeded to the ground strafing range as a three ship
flight and made a dry run on the target. Number four joined on before they made the next pass
and was behind number three. "As I turned on approach to the target, I decided I was too close
to the number two man to fire on the target, so I moved out to the left a little. I started on
a dry run, and immediately as I started to pull up from the target, the engine seemed to
lose all power. At about the same instant, the airplane seemed to be mushing in a very nose
high attitude and went into the trees, which must have knocked off the tail assembly, or at
least the elevators because there was no vertical control. The plane went up into the air
momentarily and started down in a steep dive. When it finally stopped, I was still conscious
and was attempting to get out, as fire was all around the plane. I had to unfasten the safety belt
and unsnap my parachute and dingy strap, before I could get out. I managed to free myself
and proceeded to get away from the plane as fast as possible. My head was bleeding freely,
so I folded my handkerchief up into a pad and put it over the cuts on my head. Then I put my
helmet back on to put pressure on the wound. I proceeded to the strafing area which seemed to
be a block or more away. I attempted to signal the airplanes firing but failed to do so.
The three airplanes in my flight continued making passes until their ammunition was gone,
then another four ship flight came over and started making passes at the targets. I had been
circling my Mae West around over my head trying to attract attention, but with no results.
I knew they did not miss me yet because the other ships came in to fire. By this time I had
walked down to the road which runs across the range and I stayed there until the four ships left,
all this time I was circling my Mae West over my head. When the four ship left the range,
I decided that I should start walking, so I proceeded West up the road. I went about
three blocks when I noticed a single aircraft circling the range and thought that maybe
he could be looking for me so I walked back. About that time, I got to the clearing the plane
had left, so I started back up the road. All the time that the aircraft were firing on the range,
there was a cloud of thick black smoke coming up where I crashed and the planes had to fly
by it on their pattern. After I had walked up the road for some distance, I saw the red
flashing light of the crash truck coming down the road.”

"The planes are in a very poor state. They are about 75 metres from the ocean and about 100
metres apart. One is more complete than the other, but there is still very little left. One has
its motor nearby, no propellor, the wings, engine exhaust and assorted pieces of aluminium sheet
lying around. The other has wings and a pile of pieces, nothing bigger than a shoe box,
that have been placed there by someone. Neither of them have a fuselage." The tail section was
salvaged by the Australian Army and later aquired by the Australian War Memorial. It is now in
storage at the Treloar Technology Centre, Mitchell, Canberra.

a Thunderbolt taking a cut at him. The Thunderbolt apparently didn't break in time and cut about
half of the starboard wing off. This happened at about 1,500 feet. The Hurricane went into a spin,
came out of it and then spun again. The pilot was killed when his aircraft exploded and burned
after crashing on the Avon Causeway, near Hurn. P-47 was repaired and transferred to 378th FS, 62nd FG,
