Today in 1940, two Australian air force Avro Anson trainers collide in midair over Brocklesby, New South Wales. As the machines become intertwined — the upper plane’s engines stop and the lower plane’s crew bails out. Amazingly, the upper crew manages to land both planes safely. pic.twitter.com/8Hithw7Wjv
