Written by Denis Allen
Does anyon remember the mid air collision of a Balliol aircraft from Wallop and a Chipmunk from Hurn. It was during night flying,when a Chipmunk from Hurn flew through the Wallop circuit,showing no lights and apparently without radio.It flew into one of our Balliols being flown by our squadron commander with a Polish W.O.pilot in the right hand seat.It seems that one wing folded up trapping the W.O.His name was,and here I must apologise to his memory and spell it the way it was pronounced.Wodjakovsky. The Asian student appears to hav returnrd to Hurn safely. Is there anyone out there who may remember this incident and may know any more about it.
