Sopwith 1F1 Camel B4627 at (probably) Beverley aerodrome.

On 20th April 1918 the pilot of this No.72 Training Squadron aeroplane was undertaking a training flight and the landing appears to have been heavy, the tail skid and centre section broke on landing. This probably occurred at Beverley aerodrome where the unit was based. The pilot was killed in a flying accident four days later at Beverley.

Pilot - Sgt Linden Richardson RAF.

Back to yearly selection.
