RAF Canberra losses in Malta
During the late 60's I lived in Malta, leaving the island in mid 1970. (I was there from May 67 to July 70).
While I was there, the RAF lost three Canberra aircraft. (There were two Squadrons of Canberras based at RAF Luqa). In each case, there were no survivors from the crew. The only casualty on the ground was - if my memory serves me - a cow (still in its byre) which was struck by falling wreckage.
The losses happened in quick succession, I think that there was one a month, and I think that they were early in the year. Due to "other factors" I think that the accidents would have been in 1969 or 1970.
I haven't been able to find anything at all on the internet which mentions these losses which, again if my memory is accurate, led to a brief grounding of the Canberra fleet.
Does anyone know anything about these accidents, or is my memory playing tricks?
