Re: Fleet Air Arm aircraft crash

The crash was some 32 miles from Easthaven.

Is their any supporting info it was a Firefly he was flying at the time of the crash?

East Haven was No 731 Sq base at the time.
I have nothing else than what is published by Air Britain in their serial number book 1939-45 which links Z2096 crash with S/Lt King.
