Nice log Ben, seems like a Cessna of some sort crashed on take-off yesterday :- http://www.dinningtontoday.co.uk/news/l ... -1-4633064" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

Luckily the occupants seem OK.

Found this out couple of days ago;

All OK, but shakey. A 17 year old with long range tanks with loads of fuel, no headwind and allegadly with the carb heat out although he claims 65kt roll and wouldn't pull up. Anyway, all OK and more lessons learnt.

G-PHLY, of phoenix was the aircraft which crashed

Hope this helps!
