2019 will mark the 75th anniversary of the crash of a US B17 Flying Fortress bomber in Endcliffe Park, Sheffield on the 22nd of February 1944 costing the lives of the 10 member crew of the "Mi Amigo". Pensioner Tony Foulds aged 82 regularly tends the memorial site after witnessing the plane crash as a child, and states that he owes his life to the airmen who avoided children in the park.
Tony after bumping into the BBC Presenter Dan Walker managed to arrange a multi-air craft fly over on the 22nd of February 2019 (weather permitting). This is the BBC news report when Dan Walker breaks the news to Tony Foulds live on BBC Breakfast News that he has got his fly by, with tears and smiles.
