XV 298 crashed on a strip at Kukes on a special mission. The briefing, according to the crew and not published, appeared to be a contributory factor to the crash.
XV 179 was shot down North of Baghdad. If the Flight Commander of that section, (the same person as above), had acted on the information presented to him, 3 years prior to the attack, the aircraft and crew, would most probably have survived the incident. The Barristers at the Inquest were certainly questioning of the evidence presented.
