Another Ar 66 crash on Dutch territory. The military pilot lost his way en route from Salzwedel to Wilhelmshafen and landed in the province of Groningen. He tried to take off again but hit a car and a bicyclist who was killed. The pilot was court-martialled in Germany. The farmhouse stands little changed today. Its street address is in Spijk, but most sources give the hamlet of Zijldijk as the accident location.
