    The Sopwith Snipe had oxygen for the pilot but that only made a brief appearance at the end of the war.

    Can’t believe they have put the pictures of the aircraft burning with the news report, surely the remains of the poor pilot must be in the aircraft still. I find it rather tasteless especially when he could have family and friends who could see the pictures.

    RIP.

    My Grandad flew 2 operations on D-Day, got hit by anti-aircraft fire coming back from Argentan and had to land at RAF Woodbridge which resulted in them ground looping, his captain got the DFC during the tour, would think it was for this operation.

    workers were using a gas-powered thermal cutter to take the bomb apart when it exploded

    Distinct lack of health and safety…….

    Just feel sorry for the people who died by somebody’s silliness, surely they must of known what a bomb looks like.
