Thanks Fen Boy I see my guy was runner up - good effort !!!!


'The runner up was Mr Les Morley of Coulsdon, Surrey, who carried out a successful forced landing after the propeller, half the engine cowling, half the crankshaft and the pistons came away from the engine of the aircraft he was flying. Despite the very daunting engine problem, Mr Morley managed to force-land the aeroplane on a disused landfill site with no further damage to the aircraft and no injury to himself.'


Is it 2004 yet in the Fens ?
