Training

The crew was involved in a training sortie, taking part to the simulation of a bombing attack. A bomb stored under a wing failed to release properly during the exercice and exploded on landing, disintegrating the aircraft and killing all three crew members.

The crew consisting of one instructor and four pilots under supervision was completing a local training mission in Amsterdam-Schiphol Airport. In flight, the crew voluntarily shot down an engine and continued the instruction program on one engine only. Few seconds later, the operative engine failed. The aircraft stalled and crashed in flames on the bank of a canal. The aircraft was destroyed by a post crash fire and all five crew members were killed.

The crew was performing a local training sortie. For unknown reason, the aircraft crashed on landing and was damaged beyond repair. All four crew members were unhurt.

The crew was performing a local training mission. After several landings and takeoffs completed, the crew consisting of one instructor and seven pilots under supervision decided to perform a flapless landing. After touchdown, the pilot in command realized that his speed was too high and that he would be unable to stop within the remaining distance. He took the decision to make a sharp turn to the right to vacate the runway when the left main gear collapsed. The left wing contacted the ground and was sheared off at the root, causing the fuel to flow on the ground and to ignite while contacting sparks generated by the friction of the metal with the runway surface. The aircraft veered off runway and came to rest in flames. All eight occupants were quickly evacuated while the aircraft was destroyed by fire.

The crew was completing a training sortie in RAF Finningley. Upon landing, the aircraft swung on runway, went out of control and came to rest. All crew members escaped uninjured while 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.

While cruising in VFR mode over the region of Coventry at an altitude of 4,500 feet, the Anson collided with a BEA C-47 registered G-AHCW and carrying four crew members and six passengers from Northolt to Glasgow. Following the collision, both aircraft went out of control, dove into the ground and crashed in Exhall, north of Coventry. All 14 occupants in both aircraft were killed.

Following the failure of two engines, the aircraft belly landed at RAF Shepherds Grove and came to rest in flames. While all crew members of the 149th Squadron escaped unhurt, the aircraft was destroyed by fire.

While on a night training flight from Keesler AFB, Mississippi, the twin engine aircraft went out of control and crashed in unknown circumstances into the Lake Pontchartrain, about five miles northeast of New Orleans. All eight crew members were killed.
