Unverified, but I heard that it was a PA28, operated by Lapwing Flying School at Denham.
Apparently, an engine failure, & forced landing, but luckily the 2 PoB walked away from it, with only minor injuries.
If so, well done that pilot.

I've not heard of that flying school at Denham, but there were quite a few planes coming over Harefield on Saturday (which they're not really supposed to do according to the aerodrome plate) - it was fairly windy on the ground, so I would guess a few were blown off track. Hope you're right and everyone's OK. I suppose this will get the anti GA lobby on the warpath again.

Engine failure at 400' - unable to reach runway and landed in fiel crashing into a tree. Aircraft apparently a write-off, Pilot and pax walked away but were admitted to hospital for checks. Pilot currently off work due to his injuries. Pilot normally flies a Europa.
