Mosquito TIII LR527 - 1655MTU/16OTU/CBE/228OCU/1689 Flt/FTU -
Dived into ground on single-engined approach Benson 20.4.1953
Can anyone help determine what actually happened 20.4.1953 to this Mosquito,
along with the names of the crew?
Thank you in advance

Good evening Pavel !

According the book "Last Take-Off", page 361, the aircraft crashed after control was lost after an asymmetric approach.

The (obviously) only crew was F/S William Fowler Farquharson, who is reported as a casualty.

Hope this helps.
