Hello Andy, yes I went through those files you sent and they have been extremely helpful. There was talk in the village of another Dakota coming down in the area - which I may learn more about tonight after a phonecall. I grew up in the area and recovered a part of the aircraft 5 - 700 metres to the East of the position the villagers believe Pogues aircraft came down. I have given this to the village to give to the Pilot's daughter, and they also wish me to take her up to the spot - so I would hate to mislead her. Is it possible for the Dakota, having lost a wing to still travel 5 - 700 metres?Thank you very much for all your help ( all thsoe books as well) and I look forward to meeting you at the eventBest wishesAdam

I have a good deal of information, as does Dennis.
Look also at the posts by forum member Rustynails.
I would be happy to help and will be there when the memorial is dedicated later in August, but think we are going over old ground here?
