WELLINGTON MK IA R
CFS3 - V4.00.169
OPERATION HANGER CLEAR
In many cases I have not had the time to research all the background on the planes & in some cases the original creator of the skin or visual may have been lost. Rather then continuing to hold onto them we have decided to release them "AS IS".
I have also abbreviated the instruction package in order to get them out for Christmas 2009. Instruction packages from the normally released AvHistory planes can be useful in filling in the blanks.
Should anyone have an issue with me on specific credit for a plane or anything that does not work; I apologize in advance & invite you to contact me through AvHistory.org
Regards,
BEAR

WELLINGTON MK IA R
Designed by the GROUND CREW
Wellington MK IC N2980, squadron letter R for Robert, had completed fourteen missions when she was transferred to training duties at No. 20 O.T.U. at Lossiemouth.
On New Years Eve 1940, pilots Sqdr.L. Marlwood- Elton and P/O Slatter took off in the late afternoon with a crew of 6 trainee navigators. While flying along the Great Glen at a height of 8000ft. they encountered a snowstorm and the starboard engine cut out.
Losing height, Marlwood -Elton ordered the trainees to bale out. At this point, the rear gunner, Sgt. Fensome was killed when his parachute failed to open but the others landed safely. In the dusk, the two remaining men fought the aircraft down through the snow clouds to ditch in the northern basin of Loch Ness near the A82 road.
They climbed onto the wing, launched their inflatable dinghy and paddled ashore where a lorry driver gave them a lift into Inverness in time to join the New Year celebrations.
