Hi Zotbox,
No prob, found a precis of the accident report which doesn't mention Barton, forgot to bring it to work - pretty sure there is an article from a few months earlier which does mention Barton in relation to the same incident, around 1976 or 77. Bit more research tonight...
Two on board, both survived - it was more or less a very heavy, fast crash landing in a cornfield after entering a spin rather lower than was wise! Tough old boid the Stearman.
Edit:
Both injured. I can't find the reference that definitely links this with Barton, nor can I identify a Stearman on the UK register that might have been the culprit!
Five minutes later - from Warbird_Central.com:
8822 to N55720, then to G-BDCF May 5, 1975. Registration cancelled after aircraft failed to recover from spin and crashed at Barton Aerodrome, England
Jul 17, 1977, but one source says remains sold to owner in USA
Wunderful thing the web... bet the wreck went Stateside...
