Unidentified Whitley at Dishforth airfield.
On 15th November 1941 this aircraft crash landed on the Dishforth to Boroughbridge road at 21.36hrs. The incident features in a list of police
call-outs I have access to but the identity of the aircraft was not given. As yet this has yet to be discovered and any further information known.
It sounds like the aircraft overshot on landing and ran through the remains of the boundary hedge.
Five crew - Names unknown. Uninjured.
