Geoffrey Sinclair adds the following

An MACR can be generated without the aircraft being lost. An MACR will not be generated for most write offs.

There seems to be agreement 2 P-38, 2 P-47, 18 B-17 and 2 B-24 did not return plus 42-31415 which did return after 5 crew baled out (but was written off). Losses in these bombers 96 KIA, 103 PoW, 6 Evaded, 5 Returned to Duty.

The write offs, Roger Freeman says 3 B-17, 1 each from the 351st, 379th and 384th BG, candidates

42-30643 364th Sqn 305th BG reported u/c collapsed taxying for Brunswick mission 29/1/44 (date or mission wrong) condemned 30 January.
42-31223 711th Sqn 447th BG Belly landed at Honington on return
42-31415 545th Sqn 384th BG crash landed at base 30/1/44
42-39889 527th Sqn 379th BG written off (30 January?), no other details


As Geoffrey so correctly pointed out, I missed out a line in his answer. Darn...
Here it is (sorry Geoffrey)
In addition 42-39834 (511th Sqn 351st BG) undercarriage failure landing from a training sortie
