they came through the trees with the LHS wing hitting the tree with the red arrow. they then impacted the ground in the blue circle. the LHS main gear was left at the fence and they then bounced from there to the southern side of the road as seen in other photos. I'm the guy in the red and seen it all. first question I asked was "what happened" the student said engine failure, got it running then partial engine failure and went below the power lines on purpose. My partner seen the passenger get ejected through the front windscreen and when I ran to the plane the guy was laying in the long grass on the southern side of the plane( he was in the passenger seat on the northern side) I know both pilots and the plane as I trained in it -

I was the one that seen it. your onto it. came down level, clipped a tree with the left wing, spun to the right underneath powerlines and bounced across the road and on final impact one of them was thrown through the windscreen. the seatbelt wad torn from the fuselage and a hole remains where it was bolted in. I Learnt to fly in this exact plane so I know it quite well
