VEE-TRANS 240 Mayday at Luton
Thank you so much to the ATC units involved yesterday in helping to deliver us safely on the ground!
I was First officer on this Chieftain, that suffered a catastrophic engine failure just as dawn was breaking over Luton. We were cruising at FL80 and it suddenly quit...In a violent way!
Luckily we were in VMC overhead the airfield, as we could not maintain altitude due to deformation of the cowling and loose parts of engine dangling in the slipstream!
I am so lucky! please get in touch if you were involved so that I can thank you personally!
