Post war this was exceeded on 25/1/47 by another take off crash when a Rhodesian DC-3struck a Czech DC-3 with the loss of 18 in all.

Whilst researching the September 1952 Rapide crash I came across the following cuttings in the British press regarding the 1947 Dak crash at Croydon.

Fascinating reading from events sixty three-plus years ago.
