I was at school (Latymer Upper) in Hammersmith that day, and the weather was horrific. We were used to hearing aircraft going overhead as it was on the direct flight path to London Airport, but the sound of the aircraft, a Vulcan (as I learnt later) was ear-splitting. Four Olympuses at 100 feet below the glide path was terrifying.

When I got home I learnt that the aircraft had landed short in an onion patch, lost its undercarriage and then crashed.
