Beaufighter JL583 (probably) at Catfoss airfield.

On 11th November 1943 this aircraft was being flown by a No.2 (C)OTU trainee pilot or crew when the aircraft suffered the failure of the port engine. While I have yet to locate any detailed information it would appear that the pilot made a heavy landing (probably their home airfield at Catfoss) and the undercarrige legs collapsed.

Crew - Names unknown.
