That poor Mossie should have been parked up for the day, starting issues, then running issues, a nose over on the first take-off should have hinted that it was not to be it's day. And sure enough on landing it tripped over the raised section of track across the grass strip. An in-just outcome for such a small misdemeanor.



The Hurricane nearly got caught up in the wreckage too.

The first picture is inside the back cover of this month's RCM&E ;)

Cheers
Danny

If the Mossie would have had a pilot he would have seen the bump and flaired sooner to carry it over the bump.

Probably ejected. That cockpit does look rather empty though
