Re: Mosquito PR IX 540 Sq Lost October 26,1943-Cause?

Who knows? In the case of missing aircraft lost over water with crew, rarely can we find the reasons as to the cause of their demise. Engine failure, oxygen failure, or unreported enemy action could all be responsible. Structural failure is another option.
This Mosquito, I believe,was one of the first PR IX lost in action.
