Dan Air Comet 4C incident - trying to trace

Hi All

I was a passenger on a Dan Air flight back in 1978 (ish) that took off from Gatwick and was forced to return and land at Heathrow (emergency shutes, fire engines, etc) as a result of two engines being shut down after fire alarms. The aircraft was the oh so lovely Comet 4C, and the incident was very entertaining for a 12 year old lad (as I was at the time).

I am now trying to trace this flight and was wondering if anyone remembered it (wild chance I know) or knew of anyway I could track down air incident information for this flight.

I think the flight took place in March 1978 and was destined for Italy (Turin I think).

Any info gratefully received...

Cheers
