As mentioned above ... I remembered seeing at least one of these pics in the Flight Safety Review publication back in the late 70's. Spookily I came across these pics when doing a sport of other research for this Thread. I can't remember the article detail but I believe this was a 'Landing Mishap' at Thorney Island circa 1975.

Interestingly XV181 continued in service until Mar 2003 when we sold her to the Austrians and she is now sporting 8T-CA as a serial.

And 8T-CA as she is now ... love the flag
