						Flight Lieutenant Peter Stewart Quirk Andersen (RAF) Killed		Northrop
FEEDBACK	Hi I came across your site this afternoon. The pilot who was flying a Northrop F89 C Scorpion on 9th December 1951 was my father. I don’t know too much detail about the accident. What I do know is that: His name was Peter Stewart Quirk Andersen He had spent from May/June 1942 until the end of the war in Stalag Luft III ???? - shot down when ??? His rank at the time was Squadron Leader He left the RAF soon after the war and joined BOAC as a pilot He became, I gather, bored with this and rejoined the RAF In 1950 he was seconded to the USAF on a 2 year exchange programme His rank went back to Flight Lieutenant because he had rejoined the RAF He was posted, I believe, to Pensacola AFB in Florida From what I was told, he was flying the Northrop Scorpion back from San Francisco He landed to re-fuel at San Angelo AFB I understand that as he took off, something happened to the plane and it crashed straight in I was not in the US because my mother died when I was born (1942) and he re-married when he came back from POW camp. I gather that there is a 344 (!) page report on the crash in the archives in the US. His body was flown back to the UK and he was buried in Reigate. If you like I can dig out a picture of him. I hope this helps – if you know any more, could you let me know?

	USAF	Northrop F-89C Scorpion		27th Fighter-Interceptor Squadron Griffiss AFB, Rome NY	Broke up during display and crashed into an ammunition dump Crashed during a Detroit air show at Wayne Major Airport [International Aviation Exposition, Detroit, Michigan, USA]
						Maj. Donald Adams [Korean war jet ace] killed	radar observer Capt. Kelly killed
FEEDBACK	The R.O.'s name was Capt. Kelly. I was the crew chief of that F-89 and it (and myself) were from the 27th FIS from Griffiss AFB in Rome NY. The plane went as an alternate to the original selection due to a periodic inspection due. I was told (not official) that the F-89 was not build for high speed low altitude runs which is what they were requested to do for the air show. I did not know that it hit an ammo dump. What I was told is that it hit near, and a part of, the parking lot. and that the accident was the result of the wing breaking off during the "fly-bye". Ronald Burns in email 17th January 2009
	Re: Saturday 30th August 1952 The accident described on the site which occured on August 30, 1952 at the International Aviation Exposition in Detroit, Michigan was of particular interest to me as I was one of the Civil Air Patrol Cadets assigned to the parking lot near which the F-89 crashed. As a result of my actions following the crash I, along with two of my CAP companions, was awarded a flight scholarship by the USAF. Ronald Burns contributed an interesting bit of feedback to your article and I would like very much to contact Mr Burns to discuss futher details of the accident. Should it be in any way possible to pass my email address along to Mr Burns I would be very grateful. Stan Anderson

FEEDBACK	In researching my family history, I came across your site on F89 Scorpion crashed. You have the Nov. 10, 1959 crashes from Malmstrom Air Force Base in Montana listed. In the listing you have the name of Lt. E Copher (pilot). I have the names of the other three airmen killed. They were Lt. Ronald D. Hemby, 23, radar observer, of Frederick, MD. The plane with Lts. Copher and Hemby crashed near Ulm, south of Great Falls. The other plane had Lt. Charles G. Daniels, 27, pilot, of Hayward, Wis. and Lt. Eugene A. Murtha, 23, of New York City. This plane crashed near Lewistown. Parachuting safely in the Lewiston area were Captain John Buttner, 31, of Bluefield, West Virginia, the pilot, and Lt. James Johnson, 27, of Groassbeck, Texas, radarman. Walking away unharmed from a T33 craft belly-landing at Malstrom were Lt. Arlan Larm, 24, of Royal, Iowa, the pilot, and Lt. David Collins, 25, of Rome, GA. Their landing gear did not go down properly. These tragic crashes occurred in the early morning hours of Tuesday, November 10, 1959. Lt. Eugene A. Murtha was my father's youngest brother and my uncle. My father James Murtha and his brother William Murtha lamented that they had both served in the Navy during World War II, Pacific Theater and survived numerous battles at sea only to have their young brother killed on a training mission in the US. Lt. Eugene Murtha's twin brother, Lt. Thomas Murtha, also served in the Air Force during the same time, but he was stationed in England. My father saved the newspaper clippings from this tragedy. The headline for the article, which appeared in the New York Journal-American Nov. 10, 1959 reads: AF Planes Crash In Blinding Snow; Four Fliers Killed. I wonder what training could have been so important to fly a mission in a blinding snow storm? Their specific mission was withheld as classified military information. I hope this information helps complete your work in progress. Regards, Ellen Murtha Conlon in email 30th March 2011

FEEDBACK	". . . My brother, 1st Lt William G. Auvil, of Farmington, WA, was the pilot. The Radar Observer was Capt Donald R. Repp, of Lacrosse, WA.The ultimate cause was engine failure of one engine shortly before the intended landing at Spokane International Airport, at an altitude too low to recover.
