    From memory, pagen01, ( not good these days!) I think you’re right. the Boscombe B.36 was diverted through bad weather. I do’nt remember it original destination.

    I know this thread has been quiet for a while, but I do’nt know where to post this picture.
    It was part of a collection of photos’ that my father had from his time in Malaya 1951-2.
    Of course this crash scene could be from elsewhere. Can anyone throw any light on it?

    Thanks, Jeff

    Jeff.

    Interesting photos; what is the machine that can be see below the nose of the nearest Mosquito? Sea Fury?

    Could be, seems quite humpty backed enough, I’m sure some one more adept at aircraft recce will be able to tell us

    I’m new on here but find this thread fascinating. I do’nt know if these two old, and not very good photos’ are of any interest.
    They were taken in a field close to R.N.A.S. Yeovilton, date unknown. I believe they are of Fireflies, and in the back of one photo looks like the tail of a Seafire.
    The other photo I’m sure are of Mosquitos, why would they be at a R.N . station?
    As I said, I hope they may be of interest. I’m afraid I do’nt know how to make the pictures bigger.

    Thanks whalebone, that must be the one. Is there a way I can send a larger picture to my friend in the States? ( I’m not too good on here!)

    I’ve just joined this site,so still stumbling around a bit.

    As I have a soft spot for Vampires, and Venoms. I thought I’d throw on some pics of a T.11, XE982, that I restored to static condition at Dunkeswell, in Devon back in the early 1990’s. Unfortunately, it was’nt looked after, and soon fell into disrepair in the elements. This aircraft was written off very early in its life by WL 505 in a collision whilst at Cranwell. ( see photo posted by laurieb back in March. )

    I believe the aircraft now resides in the Irish Republic.

    I have other photos’ of it during resto’ if anyone is interested.

    Jeff
