Sorry, maybe should have explained the twist at the end.......one of the pax was a v.young child, probably only a few months old. He managed quite well and suffered no ill effects. At the end of the programme the co-pilot's widow and one of the 'diggers' were talking to the head man of a local village who had attended the scene in 1953. She showed him the baby's photo and asked if he remembered the littl 'un.
Yes, he had....well, here he is, she said, and introduced the digger, who had come back to the crash after 50 years to re-visit!
