Narrative:Mosquito TE691: Took off for a Training flight. 24/10/1949.
The pilot was engaged in asymmetric flying, and circuits and landings. At an altitude of 3,000 feet, the aircraft's port engine would not regain power once it had been unfeathered. The pilot re-feathered the propellor, but the aircraft continued to lose altitude, and force landed on the runway at RAF Brize Norton.
