Flight in accordance with IFR would have been necessary in the vicinity of the Mull of Kintyre - the Pilots did not fly the aircraft in accordance with that requirement and crashed whilst attempting to fly VFR in IMC.
Sorry, Caz, but how can you possibly know that beyond any doubt whatsoever?
Incidentally, whilst flight under IFR is, of course, mandatory in IMC, flight under IFR may be flown in VMC. But flight under VFR must always be flown in VMC as appropriate to the category of airspace and the altitude and IAS of the aircraft.

As regards Glen Ogle, I don't think that the full facts will be made available for many a long day. Those who know, know why.......
