I was on the crash guard, fresh-faced 1st year in the RAF. Guy who ran the site I believe was an ex- lightning pilot - Flt Lt Clough, who had retrained as a fighter controller; we were all from Boulmer. We stayed in a local 4/5 * hotel, unfortunately some of the guys found the Jag pilot.

Sad day for all concerned - remember it well.
