Angel 44 Accident.

In the Angel 44 accident the name of Camden, NSW, continues to rise.

Over the years Camden has had a continuing list of twin engine aircraft accidents. The usual theme is an engine failure, practise or for real at low level just after take-off. The aircraft then comes down off the northern end of the runway on the upslope. Some fatal, some serious injuries, some walk away. The aircraft are usually destroyed.
Off the cuff I can recall Hudson, Dove, Dutchess, Twin Comanche. There are others.

Camden would appear to have had more twin accidents than any other airport that I can recall. Please correct me if I am wrong.

Please add a few more and dates. These accidents go all the way back to the end of WWII. Finger trouble seems to be the main cause.
