BOAC:

So, (apart from the fact that all aircraft crashes arrive on the ground eventually) elevated terrain does not appear to be a factor.
Based on the Aviation Hearld's coordinates, the crash site is along the missed approach procedure, 8.2 southeast of the airport, at an elevation almost exactly the same as the airport's.
