SOT Lysander crash?

[jan_olieslagers]

Today at the Schaffen (EBDT) fly-in, I heard talk of a Westland Lysander of Sabena Old Timer's club crashing due to engine failure on take-off, presumably at Zaventem EBBR. Who knows more?

On what date? if it was today, it would be all over the news....nothing to find.

Latest I could find is from 2001: PRONKSTUK CRASHT

More news will bec ome available next month.

Saw it there, Willy, thanks. But is the restoration really done? I mean, has the bird flown again? Or have they given up that ambition?
