Some more snippets on this accident, taken from another topic on PPRuNe:
"Captain Geoff Whittaker was ex Jersey Airlines/BUA(CI), and Aurigny."
[Geoff Whittaker] "had taken the a/c over from Jeep Holmes."
"Bill "Wild Bill" Hiccox was the First Officer on the Exeter Viscount crash. The only person I ever met with a Silver C on viscounts!!!"
"Seem to recall it was a Brittany Ferries charter to bring some passengers back to UK from Santander due to delays with a ferry into Plymouth. Overhead Jersey, the captain was told the fuel was marginal for Exeter but decided to push on.......and nearly made it."
"My claim to infamy is that I was at Kirkwall [Orkney Islands] stripping parts from G-BFYZ, when we heard the newsflash about G-ARBY. I ended up a few weeks later at Farnborough robbing parts from G-ARBY."
