78 Sqn Chinook Crash (20 years ago)

I am attempting to lay to rest a personal demon.

20 odd years ago a Chinook helicopter, of 78 Sqn RAF Mount Pleasant, crashed on an airtest/rotortune. Three crew and the rotortune team were all killed.

I was the (new) Opsy on the Squadron and responded in the best way I could to the events that happened that day.

Throughout the rest of my service, I never really discovered what the BoI uncovered (I was a witness).

Can any of my fellow Ppruners point me/supply me with an answer?
