Col is correct. W8450 was a night time accident where poor Mroczek (no doubt lost) unluckily hit a tree when trying to force land at Coppice Road, Arnold, Notts.

Yes the compiler of 16 SFTS no doubt suffered (as so many others) from fingertrouble and wrote W8540 (which was a black out serial and did not exist) instead of W8450.
