Narrative:
Mosquito NS736: On final approach to RAF Lyneham, the port engine had failed from loss of coolant. The pilot responded by feathering the port engine, and setting the Mosquito up for an asymmetric (single-engine) landing. However, the pilot "held off" the aircraft for longer than was necessary, and the aircraft landed well down the runway at RAF Lyneham, and was unable to stop before it "ran out of runway". 14/03/1946
