28th Jan 1972 D-ANEF.
I sort of saw it happen. From my viewpoint the aircraft disappeared behind a hangar and didn't re-appear. A short time later smoke could be seen above the hangar. No one hurt.
It was LH's last Viscount and was being delivered to Hurn for rework before going to SOAF.
Very windy day, VC-10 G-ARTA broke it's back at Gatwick that day.
