Tuesday 15 August 1967. Both incidents within 90 minutes of each other. First incident involved flight enroute Southend to Paris (via Portsmouth). Lost control on landing due to waterlogged grass runway. Second one came to grief whilst landing from Channel Islands. One good point to come out of this was each aircraft ended up in a different position to the other. Total of 70 passengers and crew - no one hurt. Both aircraft repaired and flown out - both suffered bent props and undercarriage damage
Both aircraft recovered and driven across airfield on low loaders by Mr Bob Bernard
