Thank You, Noggin & All The Above. I think the pilot was named in the Coroners report, but that it was not published at the time for "security reasons"
This incident brings out the terrier in me. Because nothing about it seems to appear in published histories, I strongly suspect that the unit involved was some second line affair, Atcham/Goxhill, that kind of thing. Is I ever get a name, I'll be on here for follow-up info.
