Re: Crash of Tempest F.2 MW422 August 9th, 1947
Excellent details Andy
The only snippet I can add was that the post incident investigation showed it
was the No 13 engine cylinder which had failed.
Perhaps the pilot was lucky after all since an undercarriage failure with full fuel
tanks and extra long range ones attached would probably have resulted in a fire...
Cheers
