Barton Moss railway station

The Barton Aerodrome disaster occurred on 21 July 1996 at the annually held Barton air show in Manchester, England. Nearing the end of its display, the de Havilland DH.98 Mosquito piloted by Kevin Moorhouse performed a steep climb into a wingover. The left engine then failed, at which point aircraft control was lost, crashing into woods near Barton Aerodrome. Both pilot in command Moorhouse and engineer Steve Watson were killed. The crash would mark the destruction of the last airworthy Mosquito until The People's Mosquito project, led by John Lilley, who is attempting to return another aircraft to the skies 26 years later.(Currently achieving engine ground runs and taxying checks in 2024).
