One crashed in a field near here once. Only time our village has ever been in the national news. It probably won't happen again until I begin my serial killing spree.

In 1998 I saw a glider near my house get hit by lightening. The glider lost a wing and just dropped from 2000 feet or so into a field. Luckily both occupants had parachutes.
Unfortunately it fell into the next village, so mine still didn't get into the news.
I live in Salford but it is a large area so am a fair distance away. The site is only a mile or so from Barton Aerodrome so it is pretty suprising this doesn't happen more often to be honest.
The only two problems with this scenario is it wasn't in Central Salford, Broughton area and it wasn't a larger plane... one about the size of Salford would have done nicely.
