It crashed almost directly beside the underpass that connects Vanderbilt in Tarrant (by the Cedar House Restaurant on Cedar St.) and the road in front of the quarry in North Birmingham (formerly Lone Star and then Citadel - something else now). The pilot landed the plane just beyond the underpass on the Tarrant side. There were, at the time, houses in that area. I am not sure that he missed all of them but do not recall there being talk of any that were damaged. The land he landed on may have actually belonged to L&N Railroad. It was probably sometime between 1053 and 1956 and I lean toward the early part of that time as I had not begun school. Can't remember if the pilot died but he was communicating with the airport and was looking for a spot for the very large plane to belly down and not hurt people. He accomplished that.
