Scroggs - You have to be very careful of poetic licence. The article in the Times Doersn't say that 47(D) had anything to do with the accident. It states



The crews from 47 Air Despatch Squadron Royal Logistical Corps, based at RAF Lyneham in Wiltshire, would have been used to working with special forces, including the SAS. As well as dropping and extracting them from hostile territory, they would have been responsible for supplying them with arms and equipment.
It doesn't link them to the accident. Factually its a correct statement. I know that it is close to the wind and that it implys that 45(d) were there BUT actually it doesn't say that. Influenced and checked by Media Lawyers. Thats Journalistic licence for ya -Unfortunately.
