There seemed to be a few incidents that day... the S3 Viking running of the end of the main runway ending up on barrow road, and i seem to recollect a Hunter dipping its wing alarmingly low before overshooting from the opposite direction(?) - i guess with that because of the gusty wind.

My mother knows F/L Lackmans wife still, and we know his son.

I have thought about asking the now Dalton barracks (don't confuse with Abingdon airfield!!) to see if we can install some kind of small plaque or something as a memorial.. We can incorporate this if it seems fit to do so around our annual Airshow weekend in May.. thought it maybe a nice touch as a mark of respect. Or even a Phantom tail fin (if one can be located) with a plaque on.. whats peoples views.
