Scimitar Crash nr Ben Vorlich 10 Nov 1959

[contrail40]

Hello all,

I've just seen this posting from 2008, and I wish I could help you, because the pilot was my father's 2nd Cousin.

I had heard that Nigel had ejected over the Highlands of Scotland in 1959 and that he was missing for 3 days, in awful weather. But I don't know the whole story and none of our remaining family seems to have the full story.

I did hear that he died years later, after falling from an apple tree, but again that story is vague.

Any other information would be gratefully received.

Sincerely,


Malcolm Grier Samuel.
