On September 2, 1953, a two-seater training aircraft crashed here in Loksbergen. The instructor and pilot in training who had taken off from Brustem with the T6 Texan Harvard H68 were killed. This monument commemorates the crash and both airmen.

Where the error was cannot be found. The flight instructor, the student pilot, the aircraft that was already of the older generation?
