Exhibition to remember Island air disaster

An exhibition in the UK will mark 60 years since the Island's worst peacetime aviation disaster.

The Winter Hill disaster happened on February 27, 1958 when a plane carrying members of the Island's motor trade crashed on its way to Manchester.

Just seven people survived - 35 on board the aircraft died. 

A free exhibition by Horwich Heritage in Manchester will open on Saturday, February 24 and will run for two months.
