Just read this on another forum, any truth in it? - Good job if it is the fact
We were en route from Shoreham to Bembridge passing south of Goodwood when we heard this lady with engine problems, and also apparently unable to see the field. Another aircraft nearby was able to see the stricken aircraft and stayed on scene (circling overhead) as she put down in a ploughed field just SE of Goodwood, but then overturned. Very distressing as could hear downed pilot calling for help over radio as trapped, upside down, inside the aircraft. We then heard a heli (Mustang?) out of Bembridge for Redhill call and offer assistance.
Detoured back in to Goodwood on return from Bembridge later in the day, and understand that heli crew had assisted exit and pilot was not seriously injured, though was hurt. Overflew the aircraft on the way back home and it didn't look pretty!
From what we heard at the time and saw after the event, it looks like the pilot did a pretty good job - could have turned out much worse.
