On the morning of Friday June 15 1945 the Liberator took off from RAF Holmsley South in the New Forest, England, on the first leg to Tripoli [at that time a colony of Italy] of a flight to Palam, Delhi, India. The weather at Holmsley South was poor, but both the captain and the duty executive officer considered it suitable for takeoff, but poor enough for a diversion to be likely if an early return was necessitated. JT985 departed at 0720 hours. At 0745 hours, shortly after crossing the English coast outbound, the aircraft reported a loss of fuel pressure. At around 0815 hours the owner of Encombe House, Kingston, Dorset, and a worker at Encombe dairy saw the aircraft, which was obviously below the height of the hills, and both knew instinctively that it was going to crash. It impacted on the edge of what is now the South West Coast Path, the wings were ripped off and the engines detached and were thrown forward towards Orchard Hill Farm, one wing coming to rest on the footpath in Polar Wood leading from the top of the ridge to the farm. There were no survivors. When the low cloud lifted at about eleven o'clock a scene of total devastation was revealed. The aircraft was under the command of a RCAF crew; the passenger load consisted of 22 airmen being sent out as urgently needed ground crew at Palam 90034 to RAF as Liberator C.IX JT986.

Substantially damaged 10Mar85 at Titusville-Cocoa Airport (TIX), Titusville, FL. A group of T-6 type aircraft were taking off in sections of two aircraft each. Each section of two was making a formation take-off with a 5 to 6 second interval between sections. N58740 was in the left position of the 2nd section; N9801C was in the left position of the 3rd section. During take-off, an aircraft in the 1st section had an engine problem and the pilot aborted his take-off. He made a radio call to notify the other pilots and the pilots of the 2nd section aborted their take-off. However, the pilot of N9801C, who was leading the 3rd section did not hear the radio call. His aircraft had poor forward visibility while the tail wheel was on the ground. Therefore, he was not aware that the aircraft ahead were a borting until he raised the tail during the take-off roll. By then, it was too late to avoid a collision. Subsequently, the left wing of N9801C struck the rudder and elevators of N58740 and both aircraft were Substantially damaged.

Registered as N3617F; current [Jul20]. Substantially damaged when the aircraft collided with crops caused by fuel starvation while crop spraying at low level at Pittstown, NJ 21Jul74. The landing gear handle broke just after take-off from French Valley Airport, Rancho, CA 19Mar99. The pilot attempted to lower the landing by pushing on the broken linkage but failed and landed with the gear retracted. The aircraft, registered to Gaillard Aviation Corp. and doing business as American Warbirds on a sightseeing flight, experienced a loss of engine power shortly after take-off from the Chehalis-Centralia Airport, Chehalis, Washington 8Sep05. The aircraft subsequently touched down hard on the remaining runway which damaged the landing gear. The aircraft was substantially damaged during the subsequent gear-up landing. The pilot and passenger were not injured. The pilot stated that during the pre-take-off check, he recorded on the manifest that he switched the fuel selector to the fullest fuel tank, but failed to physically perform the action of switching the fuel selector. During the take-off initial climb at about 100 feet above ground level, the engine began to lose power. The landing gear was already retracted and the pilot called for his passenger to extend the landing gear. The pilot switched the fuel selector to the fullest fuel tank and pumped the manual fuel pump. At the same time as the aircraft touched down hard on the remaining runway, the engine regained power and the pilot continued the take-off. The landing gear was left in the extended position and was soon determined that the right main landing gear torque link was damaged and the wheel was 90 degrees to the direction of flight. After discussing the situation with the ground crew, the pilot elected to land the aircraft with the landing gear retracted. During the gear-up landing, the aircraft slid off the runway surface into a muddy area, colliding with a runway taxi light and raised manhole cover. 90774 (MSN 88-17982) 90775 (MSN 88-17983) BTU-2, NAAS Saufley Field, Pensacola, FL.

He wanted to apply partial power and continue to land, but he heard the safety pilot declare, “I have,” so the pilot responded, “you have,” and gave the controls to the safety pilot. The safety pilot reported that, during landing, the left main landing gear touched down on the runway first, followed by the right main landing gear, and the airplane “popped up” with a nose-high attitude. The airplane started to climb, continued to pitch higher, and rolled right, so he took the controls, applied power, and lowered the nose, but the right wingtip struck the ground, and the airplane impacted terrain.

The airplane sustained substantial damage, and there were no injuries to the pilot or passenger. The pilot stated that there were some buildings adjacent to the landing runway that were obstructing the surface wind such that there was no noticeable crosswind at touchdown. However, as the tail wheel touched down, wind from between the buildings caused the airplane to suddenly weathervane to the right and depart the hard surface runway into soft dirt where the right main gear dug in and broke away from the airframe. The pilot further stated that in this model, the tail wheel is unlocked by moving the control stick forward. Since he made a wheeled landing, he thought that he may have pushed the stick forward enough to unlock the tail wheel and then did not get it back into the relock range before encountering the sudden onset of the crosswind.

Substantially damaged when it struck a ditch during an off-airport forced landing just east of the Torrington Municipal Airport (TOR), Torrington, Wyoming 19Sep05. The flight originated in Ogden (OGD), Utah, and was en route to Scottsbluff (BFF), Nebraska. The pilot was descending from a cruising altitude of 13,500 feet for landing at Scottsbluff, Nebraska. During the descent, the cylinder number 1 failed followed immediately by the failure of cylinder number 2 and within about 4 seconds a total seizure of the engine. The pilot made a forced landing in an alfalfa field approximately two miles east of TOR. During the landing, the airplane impacted a berm that separated the left main landing gear and wrinkled the left wing. According to a Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) inspector, the left wing was wrinkled, one blade on the propeller was bent, and the right main gear and wheel were destroyed. Historic Aeroplane Works, Roanoke, IN 4May06. Rebuilt, first flight 2008. Destroyed following impact with terrain near Simla, Colorado 9Jul09. The pilot was fatally injured. The airplane had departed from Centennial Airport, Englewood (APA), CO. Four witnesses observed the airplane performing aerobatic maneuvers for approximately 15 minutes. They observed the airplane pull up vertical and perform a wing over or roll type maneuver. The airplane then entered a spin, which continued until the airplane impacted the ground. A post impact fire erupted immediately after impact. Examination of the airplane showed the fuselage from the leading edge of the horizontal stabilizer forward to the engine firewall mostly consumed by fire. The inboard half of the left wing and the inboard four feet of the right wing were mostly consumed by fire. All flight control surfaces were present in the wreckage and flight control cable continuity was verified from all flight control surfaces to the forward cockpit 90947 (MSN 121-41733) 90948 (MSN 121-41734) 90949 (MSN 121-41735) BTU-1S, NAAS Whiting Field, Milton, FL.

Damaged when the aircraft was taxyed to the runway for departure at Santa Monica Municipal Airport 6May04. Due to construction on the north taxiway the pilot was instructed to hold short of the runway. After engine run up the pilot contacted the tower requesting take-off clearance with a right hand turn. The SNJ was cleared into position and then was cleared for take-off. While taxiing into position, the aircraft’s propeller struck a taxiway sign, causing damage to the propeller tip's and taxiway sign. The pilot was unaware of the propeller strike and took off when cleared by the tower. When the tower controller was advised of the propeller strike, he contacted the pilot and advised him of the incident. The aircraft then returned to the airport and landed without incident.

Damaged in collision with Cessna 152 N6084M during taxy at Lancaster, TX 14Mar92; the pilot was doing turns to see ahead but did not see the other aircraft which took evasive action but was struck by the wing of the T-6 which damaged the Cessna windshield and injured the head of the pilot. The SNJ-5, N105DG, collided with another AT-6, N90629, on the runway at the beginning of a take-off roll at the airport in Glendale, Arizona 1Aug95. The AT-6 (N90629) awaiting take-off on the runway received substantial damage when the AT-6 (N105DG) behind it started its take-off roll and collided with the wing of N90629. The two aircraft were part of a group of five WW-II Warbirds departing single ship for an across-the-country tour of aircraft celebrating the end of the World War II. The investigation revealed that N105DG was number 3 in the group of similar aircraft to take-off. The number 1 aircraft began its take-off with about 5 seconds separation for spacing. The number 2 aircraft (N90629) was waiting his turn, as briefed, for take-off when the collision occurred. The pilot of the number 3 aircraft stated to an Federal Aviation Administration inspector that he didn't understand the pre-take off pilot briefing regarding the take-off procedures. He initiated his take-off and his left wing collided with the right wing of the number 2 aircraft. The pilot of N105DG stated in his report that he understood that the number 2 aircraft would be making a formation take-off with the lead aircraft. All aircraft taxyed onto the runway and he then lined up on the right side of the runway with the number 1 aircraft in view. He observed the lead aircraft begin its take-off roll and assumed that the number 2 aircraft was rolling within formation with him. The pilot counted 5 to 6 seconds for spacing and started his take-off roll. He angled to the left to align the aircraft with the runway centerline and then straightened out on the runway centerline. At this time, the pilot observed the number 2 aircraft still stationary in front and to the left. He attempted to avoid a collision by going to the right but was unsuccessful. The left wing of N105DG collided with the right wing of N90629. The pilot of N90629 stated in his report that he pulled nearly abeam of the lead aircraft and stopped. After lead began his take-off roll, he began to count before he released his brakes. As he reached the count of 4 seconds, N105DG went by on the right and collided with his right wing. He further stated that the group had briefed that morning and it was decided that an interval take-off would be made because the runway was too narrow. 90956 (MSN 121-41742) Registered 1958 as N3631F; current [Feb20]. 90957 (MSN 121-41743) 90958 (MSN 121-41744) 90959 (MSN 121-41745) 90960 (MSN 121-41746) 90961/90995 (MSN 121-41812/41846) ex-USAAF AT-6D 44-81090/81124. 90961 (MSN 121-41812) to Venezuelan AF/ Fuerza Aérea Venezolana 90962 (MSN 121-41813) to Venezuelan Air Force/Fuerza Aérea Venezolana.

Was flying on the civil register as N73SL, registered to Scott Rozzell of Houston, Texas and carried the name 'Oh Baby'. Substantially damaged during landing near Houston, Texas 27Mar94. The private pilot was not injured. The pilot stated in the Pilot/Operator report that during the landing roll he "looked along the left side of the cowling to gage the remaining runway”. He further reported that the "aircraft turned to the right into the prevailing crosswind," rolled onto the grass, with the braking action becoming "ineffective”. Subsequently, the aircraft right wing impacted a tree and came to rest in a water-filled ditch. The left main landing gear had sheared and there was damage to the left wing.

Sustained minor damage when it collided with a Grob Flugzeugbau G103 Twin Astir, N39810, when taxying after landing at Pueblo Memorial Airport (PUB), Pueblo, Colorado 13Mar07. The Grob, which was stationary but with its engine running, was substantially damaged. The pilots on board both airplanes were not injured. The flight of the SNJ-5 originated from Centennial Airport (APA), Englewood, Colorado. The SNJ-5's right wheel ran over the right wing of the Grob. The SNJ-5 sustained minor damage to its right wing tip, leading edge and right aileron. According to the pilot of the Grob, he had stopped and was obtaining taxy clearance and ATIS information when the SNJ-5's main landing gear rolled over his right wing. Substantially damaged during a forced landing to a field eight miles southeast of Wolcott, Colorado 5May08. The cross-country flight departed Centennial Airport (APA), Englewood, Colorado and was en route to Wendover, Nevada. The aircraft was in cruise flight at 12,500 feet msl when the engine stopped running. Attempts to restart the engine were unsuccessful. The pilot performed a forced landing to rolling, uneven terrain. During the landing, both wings and the engine separated from the fuselage. The fuselage came to rest inverted in a shallow ravine. Examination of the engine revealed the fuel pump drive gear was pressed into the flange and would not rotate by hand 90996/91035 (MSN 121-41932/41971) ex-USAAF AT-6D 44-81210/81249. 90996 (MSN 121-41932) ex-USAAF 44-81210.

Open storage dismantled, unconverted, original US Navy colors at Prineville, OR 1975. Registered as N31443; current [Jul20]. Ran off the right side of the runway during the landing roll at Lakeland Linder Regional Airport, Lakeland, Florida 15Apr04, collapsing the left main landing gear, bending the left wing, and nosing down. The airplane sustained substantial damage. The flight last departed Suwannee County Airport [24J], Live Oak, Florida. The pilot stated the owner of the airplane had asked the pilot-rated passenger to fly the airplane to Lakeland for the Sun and Fun Fly In. He had just checked her out in the airplane the weekend before. The owner asked him to fly in the back seat with her because he had more experience in the airplane. He stated that his experience from the backseat was very limited. He found out after the accident that the pilot-rated passenger had not been checked out in the airplane to the point of solo. He stated that when things started to go bad on the landing there was a lack of experience which may be attributable to the outcome. The reason for why the airplane didn't respond to control inputs is still being questioned by him and the pilot-rated passenger. He stated he was at the controls from the back seat. The control tower operator told them to land mid-field. He came down on final at 80 knots and flew in ground effect until approximately the mid-field point. He retarded the throttle to idle and the airplane settled nicely to the runway. The airplane rose back into the air slightly and he held the control stick all the way aft. The airplane settled again very smoothly then the tail rose up and the nose lurched to the right. The tail came back down and he was holding left rudder to correct the direction. The tail came up again and the nose lurched to the right again. The airplane them began hopping sideways before it left the runway and the left landing gear collapsed. The airplane has had a history of the brakes intermittently grabbing and catching up, which makes him suspect that as a possible cause, but he cannot say definitely. He stated that after the accident he performed a temporary repair to the left wing of the airplane and after receiving an FAA ferry permit, ferried the airplane to his home airport. 91045 (MSN 121-42041) Registered as N319DR; cancelled 4Feb97.

Registered Dec81 as N2686D; cancelled 11Jan02. Destroyed when it impacted terrain while in an uncontrolled descent ½ mile north of the Raton Municipal Airport, Raton, New Mexico 24Aug01. The pilot and one passenger were fatally injured. The flight originated at Raton. On the morning of the accident, the airplane's mechanic flew with the pilot to Raton. He said that as the airplane was taking off from Coronado Airport in Albuquerque, New Mexico, he could hear the engine detonating. Pilot-witnesses said the pilot was performing low-level aerobatics. As he pulled up into a near-vertical attitude he radioed, "My engine just quit". Smoke was seen coming from the engine cowling. The airplane appeared to do a tail slide, then it rolled left and nosed over. Witnesses surmised that the airplane stalled with insufficient altitude to recover. It struck the ground in a left wing-low, nose-low attitude. Wreckage was spread in a fan-shaped pattern. The pilot's wife (and his aerobatic partner) believed he was making a "yo-yo turn.. essentially, a steep wingover". To test her theory, she later flew her airplane and performed several of these maneuvers. She found that she could cause the engine to quit by pulling up steeply, then pushing over into a dive for several seconds. Power would suddenly surge to 2,500 rpm. The pilot's wife surmised that the engine failed when he pulled up. As he recovered, the engine regained power and surged, and the resultant torque caused the airplane to roll. No anomalies were noted during the engine disassembly and inspection. Historic Aeroplane Works, Roanoke, IN. Registered 19Jun08 as N2686D.

The pilot lost control on landing at Arlington Airport (AWO), WA 30Sep08. The purpose of the flight was to re-familiarize the front seat pilot, who was a perspective buyer, with the tail wheel equipped airplane. The owner of the airplane, who was also a rated pilot, occupied the rear seat. During the landing roll, the front seat pilot noted that the airplane started to veer to the right. The rear seat pilot took control of the airplane and added power attempting to go-around. The airplane exited the runway as it continued to veer to the right and became airborne after striking a knoll adjacent to the runway. Subsequently, the left wing struck the ground and the airplane landed hard and impacted the concrete windsock segmented circle. Examination of the airplane revealed that the fuselage and wings were structurally damaged. The rear seat pilot reported no anomalies with the flight control system or engine. Damaged at Anchorage, Alaska 19Jul14. A few seconds into the otherwise normal landing roll, two swerves, one right and one left, occurred. The magnitude of the second one was greater than the first. The pilot responded to each swerve with corresponding rudder inputs to keep the centerline between the main wheels, but overcorrected. A third swerve, again to the right, became uncontrollable, and the airplane veered off from the centerline at about a 20 degree angle. This all happened within an estimated 3 seconds. The tail-wheel was still in the air. The aircraft quickly approached several obstacles near the western edge of the runway, including a parked truck, the airport fence, and a brick building. The pilot instinctively applied full brakes. Once off the pavement, the main wheels dug into the soft dirt, and the aircraft pitched forward until the propeller struck the surface. The airplane came to a stop about ten feet short of the truck, resting on both main wheels and the engine cowling. 91075 (MSN 121-42071) BTU-1N, NAAS Whiting Field, Milton, FL.
