Potez 25
The crew was engaged in a long flight from Paris to Pekin with intermediate stops in Warsaw and Russia. During the takeoff roll in Warsaw, the aircraft's main gear hit a pothole in the ground. The gear broke and the aircraft came to rest upside down. While both crew members were uninjured, the aircraft was damaged beyond repair. It appears that the pothole was caused by the recent heavy rain falls. It was 'repaired' few days before the accident but it seems that was insufficient. Crew: Captain Georges Pelletier-Doisy, pilot, Henri Carol, mechanic.

Focke-Wulf A.16
The single engine airplane was engaged in a local joyride in Löwen (now Lewin Brzeski), carrying three passengers and one pilot, Johannes Hentschel. For unknown reasons, he decided to takeoff from another area in the field, with a light and non significant wind component. In a relative muddy ground, the takeoff distance was too short when the pilot realized the presence of a ditch. He attempted to takeoff but the aircraft' speed was too low. It nosed down, crashed and came to rest upside down. All three passengers escaped with minor injuries while the pilot was seriously injured. He died from his injuries the following evening.
