That's correct.
The plane was taking part in D-Day anniversary activities. It had been grounded for mechanical problems, then got the OK to fly. The pilot took off, reported an engine on fire, and crash-landed about four miles from takeoff in a cornfield. Because of all the rain we've had lately, the field was so muddy that fire trucks literally couldn't drive to the plane. I'm not sure how they eventually managed to put out the fire.
