Bucker Jungmann Crash

Postby Gully » Thu Jul 07, 2011 5:46 pm

The Shuttleworth Collection's Jungmann suffered an engine failure on Sunday and flipped during the forced landing. Info and BBC link here: http://www.worldwarbirdnews.com/2011/07/04/bucker-jungmann-crashes-in-bedfordshire/

Pilot's okay. Hope the aircraft is repairable.

I saw that and wondered if it was Peter Holloways Jungman and if so was he flying it, glad the "unnamed" pilot wasn't badly hurt and hopeully it can be repaired! :ymapplause:
