Re: One Lucky Pilot.
There was one a long time ago at Llanbedr which left the MDC (Miniature Detonating Cord)wrapped around the pilots head, so very tricky to make sure its not triggered when opening the canopy.

Re: DH Rapide braking and nosing over
Interesting to read a flight report in Pilot magazine -(just google that) No 3 pointers! Dragonfly similar but it runs out of rudder authority if one attempts a 3 pointer Mossie also & very well shown with the French 3/4 scale mossie crash!

Re: Another one bites the dust...
From the crease in the fuselage and the rippling of the skin to the rear of that, it looks like it 'broke it' back'. Unlikely to be repaired on a new aircraft, let alone an ageing B737-400. It must have been one hell of a hard landing. Kevin Just a little bit harder than a well known Irish landing ...
