No it wasn't faked! 13 Sep 1962 and George Aird parted company with XG332 at 100ft on an approach to Hatfield after a reheat zone fire (I think that it was a P1B rather than a Lightning production aeroplane). He just got out in time, suffering serious leg injuries when he crashed through a greenhouse. A passing snapper happened to get a shot of the whole thing - including the agricultural worker on his trusty tractor XAR 358!
