During the afternoon of 20th February 1942 this 77 Squadron aircraft was flown on a local flying exercise. On landing at Linton on Ouse at 16.30hrs the aircraft overshot and damaged the tail when it struck some form of obstacles. The pilot had landed with insufficient flaps and therefore did not slow down as expected. Why the aircraft landed at Linton on Ouse airfield is not known.
Pilot - F/Sgt William Arthur Murphy RCAF (R/75144).
