Two mid-air collisions
Can anyone confirm whether either or both of the following two collisions took place in uncontrolled IMC outside controlled airspace?
  1. Collision between Piper PA25 G-ASVX and RAF Phantom XV 493, mid-air, 10 miles SW of Marham, Norfolk on 9th August 1974
  2. Collision over Hartlepool on 21 May 1960 between two Javelins.

Can anyone remember any other uncontrolled IMC collisions, since 11 Dec 1941 between a Spitfire Mk VB descending in cloud towards RAF Digby and an Oxford Trainer that had taken off from RAF College Cranwell on a solo training flight?
