Sturtivants FAA Aircraft 1939-1945
Wenyon Corsair JS748 Norcott Corsair JS713 Collided over airfield while changing formation at 4,500 ft. JS713 spun in. Very oddly, both aircraft had had an taxying accident 12 Apr 1945, different pilot on JS713 that day and JS748 was stationary. And JS713 had again ground collided with another Corsair again before that on 14 Jan 1945.
