Unknown aircraft near Scarborough.

This aircraft crashed on take-off on the airfield on the racecourse at Scarborough on Monday night on the 24th of July 1931. The Brough based aircraft was badly damaged but the pilot survived and was uninjured. The aircraft was dismantled and returned to Brough for repair. The press report for the incident states that it had nothing to do with the Scarborough Flying Club and given the Brough connection, I assume it was linked their. Two companies operated out of Brough in 1931, the Blackburn Aircraft Co Ltd and a subsidiary company, North Sea Aerial & General Transport Co Ltd. It seems likely it was one of their aircraft that was damaged in this incident, nothing further is known as yet.

Crew - unknown but ok.
