Re: Rapide G-ACPY lost 3 June 1941
What makes this very sad is it appears a whole family was killed...
Crew: Captain W.D. Anderson DFC (Australian)
5 Passengers:
Mrs Sheelagh Leggitt - Secretary to Sir Walter Monckton, Director-General of the Ministry of Information. Who had been on holiay at Penzance
Mr John Leggitt - Husband, Secetary of Anglo-Egyptian Chamber of Commerce in London
Jeannie Leggitt aged 11
Romalita Leggitt aged 9
Mrs. Georgina Griffith (Mother of Mrs Leggitt)
Mrs. Leggitt was in her early 30's and was previously secretary to Lord Astor, and was only married the previous August, so probably Step Mother to the children
It appears the flight was from the Scilly Isles to Penzance
