I was at Marham in 1963 and I have a clear memory of AM Broadhurst crashing at Heathrow in 2nd quarter just before I was demobilized. This was the return leg of a record breaking flight from Nairobi. Funny thing is the only record that I can find is between my ears. The one in 56 is well documented and would seem to be identical to that in 63. In 1957 I was still at school and not too interested. Any comments?

Hello,

I was at 71MU 1965/66 prior to serving in Aden and seem to remember an incident involving a Vulcan, which as far as i can recall crashed en route to Chivenor in Devon, when it went in to the Brecon Beacons. It tooktwo weeks to recover in the rain which we spent under canvas. I also seem to remember being told that there had been a WRAF officer on board who came from Devon and had cadged a ride home. As far as my memory serves, the aircraft went in in thick fog.

Regards,

Lord Caswell
