Handley Page HPR. 7 Dart-Herald G-AODE prototype

Handley Page HPR.7 Dart-Herald G-AODE (msn 147) 1st prototype, moments before the starboard engine turbine blew up, causing the engine to fall off and the aircraft to catch fire. Converted from the 1st prototype HPR.3 Herald, powered by four Alvis Leonides Major engines, G-AODE was issued a preliminary Certificate of Airworthiness on 22 April 1958. On 30 August 1958 G-AODE rendezvoused for a photo-shoot, with a Handley Page Hastings and Handley Page Victor, en-route to the 1958 SBAC Farnborough Air Show. With press and invited guests onboard the Hastings, and the Herald, the photo-shoot had just finished when a turbine disc exploded in the starboard engine, which fell off, leaving the aircraft on fire. Squadron Leader Hazleden carried out a very trying forced landing with no injuries, particularly to his wife, who was on board. The aircraft was largely consumed in the fire. Date: 1958
