Good day!

Saved the day!

That’s it DH Heron 114 HR-ASN (Aero-Servicios) in better times!Toncontin airport, Honduras. In the cockpit poss Capt. Armando Escalon Espinal (RIP). c. 1970s.

According to a seasoned commercial pilot, a possible “flap” came off while approaching Toncontin. Some 6 months prior to the accident the R/wing of the same aircraft cought on fire while being refueled at TNT.

DH Herons Folks:

Good Day!

Interesting thread on a classic aircraft!

We had one sample S.of the border at Tgu, Honduras c. 1969-1970. It belonged to a Co. named “Aero-Servicios” with the reg HR-ASN. C/n 14009.

Unfortunately, it crashed while on approach to Rwy 19 at famous Toncontin airport on May 26, 1970, claiming the lives of the crew & 4 pax. (RIP).

According to witness, some 0.7 N.M from touchdown it made a violent bank to the left & then flipped up-side down crashing in a ravine nearby. We never heard the results of the accident investigation of that sad day in Honduras commercial aviation.

Pictures of DH Heron 114, HR-ASN are rare. Will post one as soon it emerges fm the archives. We would like to see it as G-AMSP while in the U.K flying for RAF & prob as a VIP transport for the Queen c. 1950s. It later became CF-EYX at BC, Canada flying for the Ministry of Transportation. Tks

Good Day!

The magic of the www! Thank you very much for the info & data on FP472/Buno 37796.

Any chance to obtain a picture while in FP472 scheme? or N3945C??

The pictures of these Grumman aircraft are rare in FAH schemes. There was another model a JFR-6 also c. 1950s that went to FAH! No C/n/Buno is known.

Tks!
