RAF aircraft collision in Kent in early 1950's
 
In the early 50's an RAF Vampire and an RAF Oxford collided over Farleigh in Kent, about 6 miles west of Maidstone. The Oxford was critically damaged and crashed in an orchard, sadly with two fatalities. The Vampire was less severely damaged and made it back to its base at West Malling.

Are RAF Official Accident Reports or Board of Enquiry findings accessible on line for such accidents, in the same manner as AAIB reports for civil aircraft accidents?
