The low voltage warning light circuit (potted) shorted and electrical smoke was emitted on a training flight.
They force landed on a green space, decided to go around, hit a house, instructor dead, student badly injured....
Some of the older pilots will probably remember this one.
Like many incidents, and we all read crash reports. You will see everything if you fly long enough, and if you teach, you can pass on this knowledge.
As for dark,
There once was a man from denham
Who's girlfriend upset 'im
So into a Munk this led him
And he fled into the air, he was grim
It was dark, where would he go?
Maybe to end his sorrow
But the Munk talked him out of his low
And down the A4 they flew, to Heathrow
To be continued maybe... Got to fly, the Rebel!
