Winter Hill air disaster

The Winter Hill air disaster occurred on 27 February 1958 when the Silver City Airways Bristol 170 Freighter ''G-AICS'', travelling from the Isle of Man to Manchester, England, crashed into Winter Hill (also known as Rivington Moor) several hundred yards away from the Independent Television Authority's Winter Hill transmitting station.
Thirty-five people died and seven were injured.〔
〕 The weather that night (note: the ICAO report〔ICAO Accident Digest, Circular 59-AN/54 (83–92)〕 states that the accident occurred at 09.15 in the morning) was so severe that none of the engineers working in the ITA transmitting station were aware of the crash.〔(Survivors relive Winter Hill crash horror ) Retrieved on 12 February 2008〕 Several feet of snow hampered rescue efforts, and a snow cat vehicle had to be diverted from the A6 to cut a path for emergency vehicles though the track had been cleared by people using spades by the time it arrived.
==Background==
The flight was essentially a charter flight from Ronaldsway Airport in the Isle of Man to Manchester Ringway Airport for a group of mainly Motor Traders to visit the Manchester Exide Battery Factory and Manchester car show.〔Steve Poole ''Rough Landing or Fatal Flight.
