Squadron, 61st Troop Carrier Group, Twelfth Air Force, Licata, Sicily. Operated a resupply mission to
transport ammunition for the 82nd Airborne Division to a landing zonenear Salerno, Italy 18Sep43.
Having unloaded, the aircraft was repositioned to Sele to evacuate wounded troops. Taxying to the
parking area, the left wing tip contacted the propeller spinner of a parked North American A-36 Apache.
Sciacca, Sicily 6Oct43. Crashed into the flight line while it attempted a night-time take off in formation
with two other aircraft from Sciacca, Sicily 29Dec43 [3KIA:1INJ]. There was a 90° crosswind from the
north blowing at about 12-to-15 MPH. The aircraft was on the right wing of the 2nd element in the
Squadron formation. The first two aircraft of the 2nd element started their takeoff and this aircraft
seemed to linger for perhaps 30 seconds before it started its takeoff run. It apparently made a
straight run down the right side of the airfield and started to drift to the right. The aircraft was
about 10 feet off the ground when its wing severed the antennae mast in front of the control tower.
The tip of the wing passed a few feet in front of the tower. After passing the control tower the
aircraft hit C-47 ? 42-23642 of the 53rd TCS. From that point on what happened is mere
conjecture. Presumably the aircraft cart-wheeled as one wing was seen to fly high into the air.
In the course of the flight from there, a propeller chopped off the tail section of C-47 ? 42-24379
of the 53rd TCS. ? 42-92067 then careened into C-47 ? 42-5684 also of the 53rd TCS.
The aircraft then came to rest facing the direction from which it had started. At that time
there was a flash of flame which burned for approximately 60 seconds before being extinguished
by the crash crew. When it had come to rest the entire cabin section had been reduced to a tangled
mass of rubble. The cabin was utterly destroyed to the forward bulkhead. Other C-47 aircraft damaged included 42-24379.

Crashed Jan 11, 1947 into a hill at Barley Hill, Stowting, Kent, in southeast England, killing five people outright,
with a further three dying from injuries received. The aircraft had been operating a scheduled international flight
to West Africa via France. Poor weather caused the aircraft to attempt to divert. After attempts to land at a number
of French airports, the pilot decided to return to the United Kingdom as he was running short of fuel.
The aircraft crashed while attempting to land at Lympne Airport. The rear fuselage and possibly other parts
were collected by Claude Jessett at Tinkers Park, Hadlow Down near Uckfield, probably in the 1950’s.
It was his intention to convert it into a caravan for family holidays. Since then the rear fuselage has remained
unconverted and derelict in the undergrowth as part of his collection of vintage steam and road vehicles.
Now part of the Claude Jessett Trust. Extant Jun19.

Damaged in mid-air collision in bad weather with C-47A ? 43-15251 over Lincolnshire 12Aug44.
This aircraft was one of 18 aircraft airborne from Spanhoe on a night formation sortie which
encountered unexpected bad weather. The leader let down to a lower altitude and turning to the left to
avoid a weather front. During the turn, the formation leader was caught by turbulence which threw
his aircraft into a steep bank to the right. The rest of the formation made a sharp course correction to
follow their leader. During this correction the element leader's aircraft skidded to the right and
collided with this aircraft which was on its starboard side. Minor damage was sustained in the
collision to the port wingtip, leading edge de-icer boot and propellor mounting bracket.

Apparently this unknown Miami-based company used N75T for drugs trafficking activities in Latin America
during the early 1980s. One such flight went wrong, and the aircraft was impounded by the Colombian
authorities at Maicao, La Guajira, Colombia. Sometime later they moved it to Bogotá, and subsequently
donated it to the Colegio De La Salle, a school in the nortern suburbs of Bogota, Colombia.
The aircraft arrived at the school in March 1987. It had been in storage
at Base Aérea de Madrid for about three years, and it was towed over the road from there all the way to the
school, a journey of about 40 kms. The aircraft could not be donated to the school, because it was still tied
up in legal investigations dating back to when it was confiscated as a drugs-running aircraft circa 1983.
Officially it is therefore still owned by the Fuerza Aérea Colombiana, but they entered into an agreement with the
school for its safe-keeping. The school will take good care of the aircraft while it is in their hands, which
includes a repaint about every four years. Preserved and in use as a classroom at the Colegio De La Salle,

had taken off, along with a second C-47, from its home station of Merryfield, eight miles
SE of Taunton in Somerset, and had flown to Filton on the edge of Bristol where both
aircraft took on injured US military service personnel from various units returned from
Normandy and accompanying medical staff. In addition, a single RAF airman had boarded;
he was returning home to Ayrshire on leave. Once loading was complete the two aircraft
took off from Filton bound for Prestwick, Ayr, SW Scotland. The injured soldiers were
travelling back to the US, possibly by sea in a convoy leaving from the Clyde. At the time
the two C-47s arrived at the northern end of the Irish Sea, a dense fog hung over the area
around the Mull of Galloway which obscured all of the coastal features, including the
200ft high cliffs which 42-93038 flew into above the beach in Cairngarroch Bay to the south
of Portpatrick. The second aircraft had also come very close to crashing into the cliffs
but landed safely at RAF West Freugh.

To Marine Luchtvaartdienst (MLD) (Netherlands Naval Aviation Service) as Q-12. To Netherlands
East Indies Navy as W-12. While on a flight from Sydney, Australia to Jakarta, Netherlands East Indies,
the aircraft was struck by lightning and made a forced landing in a gorge near Katherine,
320 kilometres southeast of Darwin, Northern Territory, Australia 26Mar47. All six people on
board survived, and the cargo was undamaged. It took six weeks to get the plane out of the
bush and to the main road where it could be towed the rest of the way. Creeks and rivers
were the worst obstacles, necessitating levelling banks and laying wire mesh and logs
in the beds. On one occasion, while negotiating a steep hill, the tow rope broke, and the
plane ran down the slope, crashing into a tree and damaging the fuselage. Original plans
were to send the plane to Sydney to be rebuilt. But the plane never made it to the New South Wales
capital. Brisbane-based KLM Royal Dutch Airlines caught wind of the crash. It was just the
thing they needed, the body of a plane to test out their overhauled engines. A disused aeroplane
would be ideal for this purpose, so this aircraft was unloaded in Brisbane. The wingless
plane spent two years there, before it was purchased by a marine plumber in 1950. He built his
motorhome, based on a 1940 Chevrolet International KB-5 truck chassis, and had ten years
of joy out of it before an accident left him with injuries to his legs. He could no longer drive,
and so the van was put on ice for decades. A service engineer was called out to do some work
at the owner's company.That's where he saw the truck and fell in love with it. When the owner
died in 1990, the camper van was left in his Will to the service engineer. By 1995 it was ready
to hit the road once more. The campervan is a familiar sight in the Samford Valley, just
outside of Brisbane. Currently roadworthy with Queensland number plate VHDAK.
Now drives around Australia as a camper.

its 3,395 ft peak of Sljeme. Of the 11 people on board, the only survivor was the radio operator.

Crashed Edavlli, Prakasam, Andhra Pradesh, 120 miles N of Madras 5Apr77.
The aircraft was engaged on an aerial survey sortie in the foothills East of Velikonda
range in Andhra Pradesh, India. The prevailing weather conditions over the survey
region during the period were a cloud base varying from 600 m to 750 m.
The pilot who was flying at an altitude of 2000 ft when he arrived at the survey area,
most probably took a left-hand turn circumventing the highest peak in the
area (Nisam Konda 2181 feet high) and then started to descend with the aim
to get below the cloud base for visual flight. During the process, the pilot
did not see a jutting out rock face on the adjacent hill, Podille Konda,
which probably was obscured by a patch of low cloud. The aircraft collided with the
rock face and caught fire.

On 10Sep44 the plane flew to Melsbroek (B-58), Brussels, Belgium. The purpose was to collect
casualties from a base hospital and bring them back to England. On board were two nurses for this
purpose. The plane landed at Melsbroek but upon landing it had a flat tail wheel. After they
landed the crew immediately requested a tyre replacement. After waiting two to three days for
the replacement wheel without receiving it, the two nurses decided to hitch a ride back to
England with whatever was leaving. On 19Sep44 a replacement wheel was flown to Melsbroek,
but No.48 Squadron was then heavily involved in Operation Market Garden. Only on 26Sep44
did the Commanding Officer realize that he had lost track of KG592 and its four crew.
The appropriate flight commander and his deputy were despatched to Belgium but could not find
any trace of the Dakota or the crew. A Court of inquiry held 14Nov44 was unable to conclude
when the aircraft left Melsbroek or the circumstances of its disappearance. It was presumed
to have been lost over the English Channel.

93508 (MSN 13427) to USAAF 27May44. Ninth Air Force 25Jun44. 325th Ferrying Squadron,
31st Air Transport Group, Grove (Station 519). On the foggy evening of 22Dec44 the aircraft was
returning to England following a supply mission to the continent. Its home station, Grove near
Wantage, was closed in and the pilot had been advised to divert to Exeter, Devon. En route he crossed
Ramsbury (Station 469) and saw lights on the ground. He radioed Ramsbury control tower for
instructions stating that he had insufficient fuel to reach Exeter safely. The tower told him to
land on runway 26 and fired flares from the active runway as requested by the pilot. The pilot
made several attempts to land but on his final approach the left wing tip hit some trees in Whitehill
Copse causing the plane to crash into the woodland. Sadly the pilot, co-pilot and crew chief were
killed instantly. The radio operator and assistant crew chief survived but were seriously injured. Salvaged 29Dec44.
'On the night the co-pilot died his family was visiting his parents. That evening the blackboard he played
with as a child fell down the stairs and into the basement. It was an impossible thing to happen.
The copilot's mother immediately said, "Something has happened to him." They weren't notified
of his death until January 1945, but the night the blackboard fell was the night the plane crashed!'

Accident 21Jan45, struck trees on a hilltop somewhere in the area between Buxton and Ashbourne;
The crew was on a daytime training flight from Chalgrove in Oxfordshire with four other aircraft.
Their route took them from Chalgrove to Bury St Edmunds and then to Wrexham where the formation
was to break up and the five aircraft return individually. Due to bad weather the flight leader
instructed the crews to break company short of Wrexham; at this point the crew of 42-93683
decided to fly roughly ESE to avoid having to pass through a weather front that
lay between them and Chalgrove. After a short time the weather closed in and the crew
lost sight of the ground, the pilot decided to climb up to 3000ft. Shortly after starting
the climb and having gained virtually no height the crew saw trees immediately ahead of
them and had no time to avoid them. The trees caused minor damage to the aircraft with the
starboard tail plane and elevator damaged along with the leading edge of the starboard wing
and skinning on the underside. Along with this structural damage the radio aerials on
the underside were damaged or entirely missing. 2nd Troop Carrier Pathfinder Squadron,

Assigned to 242nd (Operational Training Unit, Very Heavy), 17th Bombardment Training Wing, Grand Island AAF, NB
Flown by a crew of the 411th Bomb Squadron, 502nd Bomb Group
On 26 January 1945, the crew took off to fly a simulated 3,000 mile mission to home base in Grand Island, NE.
The route was to a point 20 miles north of Jamaica then to the bombing range of Cayos Travieso where they
made two runs at 9,000 feet. They then climbed to 20,000 feet by the time the aircraft reached Batista,
remaining at this altitude while camera bombing Havana, Key West, Miami, and Morrison.
Soon after leaving Morrison the airplane commander foresaw the approach of a weather front, so while
enroute to Jacksonville he climbed from 20,000 feet to 26,000 feet.
It was here also that he encountered severe head winds. By the time they reoriented themselves at
Birmingham there were at 19,000 feet. They then dropped down to 8,000 feet and were about 50 to 60
degrees North West of Kansas City when the co-pilot asked to see the readings on the fuel gauge. The fuel
appeared alarmingly low. About ten minutes later, number one and four engines stopped so power was
increased on number two and three engines. As they were flying over the undercast, the pilot asked the
co-pilot to tune in the Ft. Riley range. Homing on Ft. Riley necessitated taking
up a heading of 180 degrees. The pilot dropped from 8,000 feet to 2,000 feet; at 3,000 feet they broke
through the undercast. They spotted the range station and immediately thereafter number two engine cut out.
Full boost was given to number three engine but it would not support the plane. They attempted to put down
flaps, when a crash was inevitable, but the flaps did not appear to work. The crew had been notified by
the co-pilot twenty minutes prior to the crash to take up crash positions so that they were in their
proper places when the crash occurred 1 miles S of Ogden, KS. The airspeed on impact was estimated
at 100 miles per hour. The crash cost six lives.

Assigned to Combat Crew Training Squadron, 326th Army Air Force Base Unit, MacDill AAF, FL
On April 24, 1945 the aircraft was scheduled for a routine cross country navigational training flight
from MacDill Field, Florida west to a point over the Gulf of Mexico,
then east to Borinquen Field, Puerto Rico. Aboard was the normal crew of eleven plus a Pilot Instructor
and a Radio Instructor. The clouds en-route were forecast to be 5/10 cumulus. They departed MacDill heading
west. At 10,000’ a slight oil leak was observed in the #3 engine; the propeller on that engine ran away,
the oil leak became more noticeable, and smoke was reported from the engine. Attempts to feather the
propeller failed and the engine erupted in flames. With 4000 gallons
of aviation fuel in the wing tank the fire was very serious. Both fire extinguishers were used without
any effect. A minute later the crew was ordered to bail out. But no one acknowledged from the rear of
the plane. The pilot brought the plane down to 7300 feet and the crew began to bail out. Apparently
the five men in the rear compartment of the plane never heard the “Bail out” order or could not escape
and remained aboard the plane when it crashed into the Gulf. The wreckage of the plane was never located.
Two survivors plus one body from the B-29 were taken to Key West Naval Hospital. The other ten B-29 crew
members were never found.

Merseburg, Germany 2Nov44 (9RTD). The Group was hit hard after turning on the I.P.
The box barrage of flak was heavy around the target. After the target, because of a supposedly
malfunctioning compass, the Group Lead aircraft rallied off the target at 330 degrees
west rather than 270 degrees west, as briefed. The rest of the Group followed the lead,
in the process flying out of the protection of the main bomber stream. German Fighter
Command had been conserving its scarce fuel for weeks so as to mount a major effort
against the bomber attacks. An estimated 500 Luftwaffe fighters went up to meet the bomber
force. The plane was struck by 7.6mm machine gun bullets all over the tail and a direct 20mm
cannon shell burst in the horizontal stabiliser. 2nd Strategic Air Depot, Abbots Ripton (Station 547),

doors were going up, the crew noticed a fire in the bomb bays. Smoke started filling the plane,
adding to all the confusion of the flak bursting around the plane. The tail gunner came up to help
put out the fires and crank up the bomb bay doors. The fire was soon was put out and the bomber
started home alone. Over friendly allied territory a couple of other planes with feathered propellers,

was to be a meeting of high-ranking Luftwaffe officers and the B-17s were to use their bombs to disrupt
the meeting and destroy the airfield. Unable to bomb the primary target which was covered by dense
cloud, the bomber headed for a secondary target, the submarine pens at Lorient. As the aircraft was
transferring fuel from the wing tip tanks, No.4 engine caught fire. The crew bailed out but the pilot
remained in an attempt to ditch in the English Channel. With the fire now spread behind No.3 engine,
it burnt through control cables, so the pilot also bailed out. The aircraft then crashed in the

{first combat mission 16Mar44}. Failed to return from a Crossbow mission to a V-2
rocket service bunker complex at Sottevast, Normandy, France 8May44 (8KIA:2RTD).
The aircraft was struck by flak immediately after the bomb run, peeled out of the
formation, and headed for England. The crew had to ditch in the English Channel
thirteen miles off the French coast. The bombardier and tail gunner were rescued,
but the rest of the crew did not survive. The body of one waist gunner was recovered,
but the remainder of the crew were not recovered. Shortly after the bomb run, flak
struck the No.4 engine and then the No.1 engine; both engines cut out. The No.4 engine
caught fire and the crew considered bailing out. The next burst of flak hit the tail
wheel, knocking it off; the oxygen system was also disabled. Another burst of flak
struck the left wing between the No.1 and 2 engines and almost tore it from the
aircraft. It was held on only by about 1½ feet of the leading edge and about 1 foot of
the trailing edge. The Engineer called and reported that there was fire between No.1 and 2
engines in the main fuel tank. The bombardier jettisoned the bombs to reduce the
weight of the aircraft. The pilot peeled out of formation and headed for the English Channel.
The fire in the No.4 engine was extinguished and the crew believed they could make it back.
Because of the lack of oxygen, they were forced down to 13,000ft. However flames
continued to shoot out of the left wing and it became clear they could not make it home.
The crew bailed out. The aircraft crashed in the English Channel 25km from Cherbourg, France;
the survivors were rescued by RAF Air-Sea Rescue. {17 missions}.. MACR 4812

Battle damaged on a mission to an oil refinery at Bremen, Germany 24Jun44. Battle damaged on a
mission to drop supplies to the Maquis resistance fighters in southern France 25Jun44 (1WIA:9RTD).
Beyond Caen, France, en route to the target, the formation was attacked by enemy fighters.
A cannon shell exploded on the left wing between the engines, disabling both engines. The propellers
were feathered as the plane dropped out of formation. Turning back to England, the crew jettisoned
excess weight including the ball turret. Reaching the coast north of Caen, the plane received
more flak when the tail gunner received minor wounds. The pilot decided that trying to reach
England on two engines was too risky but flew a way over the English Channel so that the crew
could jettison the supply canisters without them falling into enemy hands. The pilot then turned back
towards France to try and find one of the temporary allied fighter fields. Spotting a suitable field,
the pilot set up an approach to land but saw red flares warning him off because the American airfield
was under attack. Despite two dead engines on one side, the pilot was able to climb away in
search of another landing field. The pilot finally force landed at Bazenville (B-2), France,
a Canadian fighter strip. The crew returned to base via an American LST taking wounded and
prisoners to England. Temporary repairs carried out by a Mobile Repair Unit from 1st Strategic
Air Depot, Troston. Ferried to Honington (Station 375), Suffolk. 1st Strategic Air Depot, Troston

when the right tire blew out. Crashed forming up for a mission to Munich, Germany 11Jul44 (3KIA).
About one hour after takeoff and still forming up over England, the crew began to smell fuel.
Suddenly the left wing was engulfed in flames and exploded, sending the aircraft into a
severe spin preventing anyone from moving to an exit. Seconds later the main fuel tanks
and possibly the bomb load exploded and the aircraft disintegrated. The pilot was
blown from the plane still strapped in his seat. Witnesses on the ground reported seeing
him plummeting toward the ground still strapped into his seat and at the last possible
moment, unbuckling his seatbelt and pulling the ripcord. It crashed at Saham Toney,

Germany 12Sep44. Flak was encountered at the target and then the Group was attacked by a
large force of enemy fighters. Battle damaged on a mission to railway marshalling yards at
Cologne, Germany 17Oct44. Moderate to intense flak was encountered over the target. Failed
to return from a tactical mission to front line strong points around Metz and Thionville,
France 9Nov44 (2KIA:7RTD). One of the bomber's engines stopped functioning before the plane
reached its target. Although they might have dropped out of formation and made for home, the pilot
and co-pilot elected to go for the bomb run. However, the heavy bomb load was too much for the
remaining three engines, and a cylinder head blew on one setting it on fire. In less than a minute
the bomber was blown apart, wings vanishing in debris, the fuselage cracking into three sections.
The pilot and co-pilot were killed, but the other seven crew men parachuted to safety landing in
French territory. Three, the navigator, top turret gunner and waist gunner, were hit by flying debris.
The bombardier landed three miles from the German front lines. He had been blown out of the plane's
nose just as he was picking up his parachute. He fell unconscious for 10,000ft, came to, snapped
on the parachute hooks, and opened it. The tail gunner went spinning in the detached tail section.
While he was still inside his parachute opened, so he caught up the billowing silk in his arms
and jumped clear. The radio operator was knocked flat on the floor, crawled to the edge of what
remained of his section of the fuselage, and rolled off into space. The ball turret gunner, in his
turret when the plane exploded, picked up his parachute less than a foot from the broken ledge,
and climbed out while his section of the bomber was falling earthward. The waist gunner was
blown through the side of the fuselage and didn't remember opening his parachute. The navigator
followed the bombardier out the hole in the nose, and The engineer/top turret gunner got out the
escape hatch just in time before the explosion. The aircraft exploded over the front lines on the
French-German border and the wreckage crashed at Fouches, Belgium {33 missions}. Salvaged 28Nov44.

The aircraft was carrying out a bomber support operation the oil refinery at Lutzendorf, a few
miles south of Leipzig, Germany on the night of 15/16Mar45. The Fortress had been hit by flak
damaging the left inner engine which soon caught fire. Nine members of the crew bailed out
of the aircraft over enemy territory. Five were subsequently murdered as POWs by Hitler Youth
as they passed through Huchenfeld on their way to Pforzheim, Germany which had recently
been destroyed by RAF bombing, causing a firestorm which killed at least 17,000 people.
The captain of the Fortress, trapped by an oxygen hose and unable to bail out, and with the
engine fire self-extinguished, succeeded in flying the aircraft back to England, landing at
Bassingbourn, Cambridgeshire with one wheel shot out. Following repairs, it continued in service.
