A chap came out of the crowd at Elvington and presented me with this pic' taken the previous year, seconds before my B25 went in on the landing circuit. The starboard motor stopped low down, incipient spin and you know the rest.......

But why did the motor stop? Have a looksee and find out why ............

Looks like the pilot spotted it too, he must have thought he could make it back on one as he doesn't appear to be making an attempt to bail out.

That's a shame Keith, another more positive point worth mentioning now, which is loosely related to the chat on your slot re 30th anniversary .
The standard of photography now that follows our hobby is incredible.
Even twenty years ago a shot with this sort of clarity would of been rare and therefore identifying the cause would of been guess work.
