MPX5128863: On the night of 16/17 April, the R33 was ripped from her mooring on the mast at Pulham, Suffolk during a gale by a strong gust of wind, and drifted away with only a small "anchor-watch" crew onboard. Her nose partially collapsed and the first gas cell deflated left her low in the bow. Wind and rain blowing into the damaged bow section added to her tilt. The crew on board started the engines gaining a little height and rigged a cover for the bow section, but the prevailing winds blew R33 over the North Sea. The crew were able to gain control of the airship over the Dutch coast and slowly made their way back to Pulham.

RAF Mountain Rescue and Police search for the wreckage of a crashed light aircraft. The wreckage of a war lies beneath the soft earth of the Cheviot slopes. Consciously ignored by the censored Press of World War Two dozens of planes plunged to their destruction and sank into bogs. More than 25 - both Allied and German - are beneath the marshy soil and their names bear out the aggression of war: Spitfire, Flying Fortress, Swordfish... But when the war ended, the accidents stopped. In the 30 years since the war there had only been two air crashes over the misty hills, this Tuesday's nosedive into Hedgehope Hill was one of them. But rumours persist about the strange weather conditions and freak disturbances between St Abb's Head, where the men went off course and the Cheviots. Does the North have a Bermuda Triangle of its own ? As Department of Trade Inspectors stood by in Wooler to begin examining the Piper Cherokee wreckage, experts answered unequivocally: No ! The aircraft, that was flying from Edinburgh to Sunderland and crashed on the 2,348 ft. Hedgehope Hill is pictured, 14/02/1979 (b/w photo)
