Japanese air disaster
I have moved the following from the article to here:
Accidents and incidents
- August 24 1938 - Ōmori air disaster: a Japanese Flying School Hanriot HD.1 and a Japan Airlines Transportation Universal collide over Ōmori,Tokyo near Haneda killing the five crew, and 40 people on the ground.[citation needed]
The above Universal is probably a Fokker Universal or Fokker Super Universal
Compare: 70 Die in Freak Air Crash - Haneda, Japan: "Japan's worst aerial tragedy! Seventy persons, including the crews of two planes that collided in mid-air, are killed or burned when the craft falls on a factory, bursting into flames and scattering flaming gasoline over a large area." from Universal Newsreel 10-706 dated 1938/09/28 at http://history.sandiego.edu/GEN/newsreels/45.html Should check to see if this is available at archive.org Also check if Haneda is near Ōmori
This is interesting - but given the age to which lightly built aircraft (especially if they were used as trainers!) were likely to survive in this era - the twenty years separating the date of the end of HD.1 production to that of this accident makes it VERY unlikely that this was an example of the type covered by this article - MUCH more likely to have been another, later Hanriot type! --Soundofmusicals (talk) 03:32, 13 November 2008 (UTC)
- It's quite possible that the Hanriot in question is the HD.14 trainer, of which 145 were built by Mitsubishi for the Imperial Japanese Army between 1924 and 1927 as the Army Type Ki 1, being retired in 1935, with several being released to civil flying schools.(from Japanese Aircraft 1910-1941 by Abe and Mikesh) This fits in with the details of the accident given above, but still needs some sort of confirmation.Nigel Ish (talk) 18:54, 13 November 2008 (UTC)

I have checked this edit (coming from an IP) in Cheesman and it seems to be correct! Well picked in fact, whoever noticed the mistake. --Soundofmusicals (talk) 06:57, 7 September 2018 (UTC)
