The aircraft G-AHOA.
On the 25th of May 1950 the pilot of this aircraft was flying to Thornaby from the Derby area when the
aircraft crashed on high ground on Out Moor, between Littondale and Wharfedale at around 18.00hrs in poor weather.
The pilot managed to get out of the wreckage and walk away from the crash site. He was eventually found with only one show though
not seriously injured but was taken to Skipton Hospital with bruises, cuts and suffering from shock.
Pilot - Mr Thomas W Hayhow, aged 43, of Middlesbrough. Injured.
Mr Hayhow was a pilot of some high regard, he made a mumber of record breaking flights prior to his death in the Alps in April 1953.
I have yet to locate the crash site.
