There seems to be more than a few differences in accounts given by Voigt & Hengst which are causing me extra work!

The landing accident that I was referring to did not involve loss of life or injury but from the description of the incident certainly suggested that the aircraft was a write off. I agree that there are more than a few differences in the accounts given by your Dad and Rudi Hengst. I will check my notes further, one thing I have difficulty in resolving is the date when the crew which landed in Ireland actually came together as a crew
