Narrative:
North American Harvard T.2B KF322. No former USAAF serial. First noted in service with the RAF in October 1950, with 2 FTS, RAF South Cerney, Gloucestershire. Transferred in May 1951 to 6 FTS, RAF Tern Hill, Shropshire.

Written off (damaged beyond repair) 1 August 1952; wrecked when force landed near Hodnetneath, four miles south west of RAF Tern Hill, Shropshire. The aircraft's engine caught fire in flight, and, during the forced emergency landing, the Harvard struck and went through a hedge. Although the aircraft was wrecked, both crew were apparently uninjured.
