German Bücker crash, EBZW/Zwartberg, 16-08-2013

Post by frank kramer »

According to a picture and tekst at

http://www.hbvl.be/limburg/genk/oldtime ... zavel.aspx

a German registered 1952-vintage biplane crashed on take-off from Zwartberg, Belgium, yesterday evening after engine trouble. Minor injuries for the two occupants. Aircraft looks like a Bücker Jungmann (or Spanish CASA licence-built copy) to me.

Occupants were very lucky, looking at the totally wrecked aircraft!
Anyone knows where this used to be based please?
