Looking for pilots / instructors, who flew at RAF Cranwell in 1944.
My great uncle (Hudai Toros, who was a Turkish citizen) came to England to be trained as a pilot. Unfortunately he crashed on 10 Nov 1944. According to the records available at Turksih Air Force Academy website, he took off from Cranwell with a Spitfire (W3456) and then crashed around Heath Farm, which is short distance from the airfield.

I was wondering if I can find anybody who served at Cranwell at the time and if I would be fortunate enough to find somebody who flew with him.
Look forward to any response / any information.

Kind regards

Cengiz Turkoglu
