Don't know anything about the missing Aztec but the Cessna crash is quite a story. Firstly, why would anyone go take off in a Cessna 150 from an unlighted grass airfield after dark on Christmas Eve to do, apparently, a couple of circuits. The pilot got a friend to park his car at the end of the Glenforsa runway and turn his headlights on for some form of guidance but it strikes me that he wasn't really of sound mind.
Secondly, what happened to him? He clearly crashed somewhere but couldn't be found. A wheel was washed up a few weeks later but it wasn't for some months before the pilot's body was found by a shepherd half way up a hill.
The last bit of the mystery concerned the fact that the post-mortem revealed no salt water in the corpse, which cast a doubt on the assumption that he had somehow crashed into the sea, managed to escape the aircraft and swim ashore in a confused state, only to die later of exposure.
Mystery aside, Glenforsa is a cracking little airfield for a day out. Don't go after dark, though
