Oxford N4647 14 (P) AFU

What is listed : 28 July 1942 Oxford N4647 14 (P) AFU crashed on approach to RAF Ossington, possibly through fuel starvation killing all crew.
P/O James Brown RCAF - LAC Albert Fricker - AC2 Edward Alton - Sgt Ronald Wootton. I ordered up the death cert of LAC Fricker to see if there was a more exact location. It threw up some anomalies , instead of the generic death by " War Operations " it has death by extensive burns and puts the inquest verdict as misadventure. Not consistent with fuel starvation. Also lists the flight as none operational. I've ordered P/O Browns DC to see if says anything else. Has anybody details on this aircraft and crew or a more detailed account of their loss.
