I AM a researcher based in Bellingham, Northumberland and one of the authors of the book Air Crash – Northumberland.
I am carrying out research for a proposed follow-up book covering air crashes around the Border Hills, in particular those around Eskdale, Liddesdale and the Bewcastle Fells. The stories for many remain untold. There were several crashes on the hills around Langholm and Newcastleton and no doubt many more further afield.

Three more Hurricanes came down a bit further south and their locations have also been lost . A British pilot flew into a hillside in mist near Riccarton Junction, possibly at Thaube Knowe, in October 1941
and a Canadian was lost when his fighter dived into a hill near Newcastleton in April 1943.
