Halifax V9994 at Rawcliffe airfield.
At 15.30hrs on 31st March 1942 this 1652 Conversion Unit aircraft was being marshalled at Rawcliffe airfield in a very tight area when the aircraft struck a cement mixer and it sustained very minor damage. The civilian mechanic marshalling the aircraft was inexperienced. Two 1652 C.U. aircraft were slightly damaged at Rawcliffe on this date but why they were at Rawcliffe is not yet known.
Pilot - F/O Edmund Keith Creswell RAFVR (107461).
