Yep - I was up on the Campsie Fells at the time (Hillwalking, not flying!)...
...From the local rag, two pilots in a Homebuilt Bi-plane taking part in a round UK race. Had just left Cumbernauld, a/c developed some problem, turned back for Cumbernauld but ditched 6 miles short.
Both occupants ok, but hurt.
