Mosquito TA582: Took off for a Training flight.05/10/1950
The Mosquito was on a training flying from RAF Swinderby, but altitude could not be maintained, with the starboard engine feathered. The pilot un-feathered the propeller on the starboard engine, but could not obtain any power from the starboard engine, and therefore decided to make a forced wheels-up belly landing at RAF Kirton-in-Lindsay.
