Fl/Lt Brand Killed in RAF Avro Anson near RAF Marham
 
I'm looking for details of Fl /Lt Brand, who is said to have been killed buzzing the airfield at RAF Marham or a satellite station in the post war period in an Avro Anson. He had been giving Flight Experience to the ATC but after they left for home, he gave some of the ground crew a flight but hit the mast on the Control Caravan when doing a low pass. The aircraft was totally destroyed with the loss of all on board.

Has anyone got the aircraft serial number and date of the crash?
