Beaufighter RD382 at Sherburn in Elmet airfield.

At 16.20hrs on 8th February 1945 this aircraft landed at Sherburn in Elmet airfield during a flight being made by a No.4 Ferry Pilot Pool pilot of the ATA. The aircraft touched down too far along the runway and it could not be stopped in the space available so that it overshot and received damage when the undercarriage collapsed.

Pilot - First Officer Margaret Elizabeth Lennox ATA (W.84).
