You didn't see the Pioneer with the split canpy that crashed on landing at Popham a couple of years ago then?
Inbound from Belgium I think it was, hit turbulence crossing the coast, head hit the canopy, which split across its width with the back section opening up to form a big air scoop. Ran out of elevator authority and ended up doing the shortest landing I've seen on 08 (around 10 metres ground run).
We picked it up and carried it off the runway and it was back about 6 months later following repair.

You're not going to post THAT picture of someone in uniform are you?
