Avro 652 Anson

The crew was performing a cargo flight from Stavanger to Groningen with a load of lobsters. On approach to Groningen-Eelde Airport, the crew encountered communication problems and was unable to locate the airport due to foggy conditions. The pilot then decided to divert to Amsterdam-Schiphol Airport. But on approach to the capital city, the crew encountered poor weather conditions as well and was forced to abandon the approach. A second attempt to land was abandoned as well and the pilot made a go around. During the third approach, he tried to descent under the cloud layer when the airplane hit the ground, lost its undercarriage, hit a caravan and came to rest on a drainage ditch. Both occupants were unhurt while the aircraft was damaged beyond repair. It was reported there were 15 liters of fuel remaining in the tanks at the time of the accident.

The crew was engaged in a training sortie from Thornhill Airfield. About two hours into the flight, the twin engine aircraft crashed in unknown circumstances near Sawmills. The crew did not send any distress call. The wreckage was found few hours later in an uninhabited area and all four crew members were killed.

During a downwind takeoff roll at Kerowagi Airfield, the left main gear hit a drain and collapsed. The aircraft went out of control, veered off runway to the left and came to rest. The pilot Neville Mitchell was slightly injured while the aircraft was damaged beyond repair.

Shortly after takeoff from Croydon Airport, while in initial climb, the aircraft suffered an engine failure, stalled and crashed onto a hangar. The pilot was rescued and unhurt and luckily, no one was injured in the hangar. The aircraft was damaged beyond repair.

The pilot was sole on board this Anson registered NK380 and was completing a combined exercice with a second Avro Anson registered EG251 and carrying one pilot as well. Both crew were involved in an ATC school exercice. In flight, the pilot of the first Avro (EG251) started a turn when it collided with the second aircraft. Both airplanes went out of control, dove into the ground and crashed in Uffington, Berkshire. Both aircraft were destroyed and both pilots were killed.
