The Bleaklow Bomber Plane Crash B29 Over Exposed

Music is “The Ghost on the Moors” by Ange Hardy. When listening to this hauntingly beautiful track with these photos, imagine she is the plane and her arms are the wings. Her grey and tattered clothing is the decaying wreckage that is slowly corroding and disappearing into the ground and one day will be gone. The Bleaklow Bomber is a B29 Superfortress that crashed on Bleaklow moorland plateau near Glossop in Derbyshire on 3 November 1948. The aircraft was on a routine daytime flight leaving RAF Scampton near Lincoln at about 10:15 and heading to the US Air Force base at Burtonwood near Warrington. The pilot Captain Landon Tanner and co-pilot Captain Harry Stroud were flying by instruments as the area was covered in low cloud. Based on the flight time, the crew believed it had passed the hills and began to descend. At about 11:00 the aircraft hit the ground and all 11 crew and 2 military passengers perished. The area around the crash site is challenging to navigate. The most obvious route is from the trig pillar at the summit of Higher Shelf Stones. It is about a 2-mile (3.2 km) walk to the crash site from the lay-by at the summit of Snake Pass, starting along the Pennine Way footpath through Devil's Dyke. Local Mountain Rescue teams issued warnings that inexperienced hikers should exercise caution before attempting a visit.
