Kilifas search.
I was a probationary pilot acting as an observer on the said search. Did not know the accident pilot. We all flew to the Southern ports via the Kilifas Gap as comparatively low levels. (<7000') and I believe the wreckage was found on Western slopes of the Kilifas Gap. The weather could obstruct the gap in the afternoons. Other old timers (AG, PC, BM) are still around and may chime in and assist you.
