From: Quite near 'An aerodrome somewhere in England'
I lived near RAF Merryfield in the 1950s which housed 208 AFS at the time. From what I've heard from those who were around in those days, the accident record you've unearthed seems correct. One night, for example, a whole wave of aircraft was lost when they all had to bail out due to fog, no fuel and no divs.....or so I was told several years later.
