The burnt-out aeroplane in the backyard of one of the houses at Edmonton, which was also gutted.

Seven people, three in one family, were killed and 24 injured 13 critically--when a R.A.F. plane crashed on the Edmonton, North London, Housing Estate recently, burst into flames and set fire to three houses.

Losing height just above a crowd of playing children, the planea Hawker Audax Fighter crashed into the Dunholme Rond, hit a house, swooped into the roadway, killed 8-year-old Jimmy Tant, bounced into another house and caught fire.

The house burst into flames, and Mrs. Grace Saunders and her eight-year-old son, at dinner inside, died in the flames. A 16 year-old son died late in the evening and the father was badly burned. He is in a critical condition.
