Didn't Skyways manage to land a 748 upside down at Lympne
. . . indeed they did, 11 July 1965. A search for "G-ARMV accident" on Flickr will reveal a couple of pictures and and press cuttings . . .

I have no idea how I pronounced it when I went there around 1971/3 in a HS125. All I remember was the runway was rough ( or was it my landing? )
No not my landing as take off was rough too a bit like Moscow in winter in the late 70's
