Holtaheia Accident
The Holtaheia Accident ((ノルウェー語:Holtaheia-ulykken)) was a controlled flight into terrain accident on 9 August 1961 at Holta in Strand, Norway. The Eagle Airways (later, British Eagle) Vickers 610 Viking 3B ''Lord Rodney'' was en route from London, United Kingdom to Stavanger Airport, Sola on an AIR Tours charter flight taking a school group for a camping holiday. The aircraft was making an instrument landing when it crashed northeast of Stavanger. The accident killed all 39 people on board.
The 36 passengers were a school class of boys aged 13 to 16 and two masters from Lanfranc Secondary Modern School for Boys. It was at the time the deadliest aviation accident in Norway.

The Viking left London at 13:29 on what was an estimated two and a half-hour charter flight.〔World Airline Accident Summary, United Kingdom Civil Aviation Authority, 1974, ISBN 0-903083-44-2, page 17/61〕 Between 16:24 and 16:30 it crashed 18 nautical miles north-east of the airport on to Holteheia, a steep mountainside at an elevation of 1600 feet.〔 The crash site was 30 feet below the summit.〔"The Queen Sends Message To Families" ''The Times'', Friday, 11 August 1961; pg. 8〕
The aircraft was destroyed and an intense fuel and oil fire followed the impact.〔 The search for the aircraft included an RAF Shackleton and Royal Norwegian Navy ships investigating the fjords in the area.〔"34 Boys in Missing Airliner" ''The Times'', Thursday, 10 August 1961; pg. 8〕 The wreckage was found fifteen hours after the crash by a Royal Norwegian Air Force helicopter, 15 miles east from the ILS track.
