I took a 76 down to Yarmouth to help out after Wessex crash. IIRC they found the wreckage but it was being covered in drifting sand and the recovery of the airframe was regarded as too dangerous. Ben's remains was not in the aircraft and were considered lost. I flew a trip with the relatives and and a padre where we deposited a wreath on the crash site as a form of rememberance. His body was found by a fishing vessel the next day.
