Negative from FNG Archive. While operating a cargo flight from Frankfurt to Stuttgart in poor weather fog persisted at the destination in combination with partly unservicable approach lights and an unreliable glide slope. Letting down below minima the aircraft struck ground shortly before and north of the threshold tearing off the complete undercarriage and #3 engine. Surprisingly a go around could be initiated and the flight was diverted to Nuremberg were a belly landing was carried out on the foamed runway. Subsequently scrapped. Note escape rope from cockpit window and feathered #2 engine.

A new light sport aircraft (LSA) variant of the Luscombe 8E Silvaire has been built in the United States. This is the prototype of an European ultralight (UL) version, powered by a supercharged 150-hp D-Motor engine. It is very faithful to the original Silvaire which is cool! Assembly is here in Oerlinghausen from US-made structural parts. The 8G designation is provisional.
