Flying Officer Norman, in 1951, was reported to have crashed his Meatbox, bounced off his own car and then into his own room, where he sadly met his end, following a failed single engined roller landing. He is reputed to still be occupying the old Officers' mess (now hotel) at RAF Middleton St. George. Spend the night there and he might come and pin you down in your bed, just like he supposedly was by falling masonry
