41-year-old business magnate, aviator, aerospace engineer, film director and eccentric Howard Hughes crashes with his own designed XF-11 spy-aircraft in Los Angeles Country Club, 10101 Wilshire Boulevard, Beverly Hills, Los Angeles, California, United States.

About 300 yards short of the course the aircraft suddenly lost altitude and clipped three houses. The third house was destroyed by fire and Hughes was nearly killed.
