The pilot ejected safely from the aircraft and landed in the grounds of a primary school. The aircraft flew a further ten miles or so and crashed on the outskirts of a village called Necton. I was serving at RAF Marham at the time and had to do overnight crash guard on the wreck. That was a COLD night, I can tell you!
