Narrative:
Miles Martinet TT Mk 1, NR405, 210 Squadron, RAF: Written off (destroyed) 19/9/1951. The aircraft was seen to be flying towards the airfield at RAF Davidstow Moor, Conrwall but with the engine misfiring. The Martinet then went into a turn, as if to join the circuit for final approach, but it then climbed slowly, stalled and spun into the ground. The pilot was killed.
