Vulcan Prototype VX770 Structural Investigation
If the mods will indulge me, I would like to ask again a question I first posed on PPRuNe some years ago ~
Does anyone know where I might find a copy of the RAE Farnborough report "Accident Note Structures 307" issued in April 1960. It contains the results of their investigation and analysis of the wreckage of Avro Vulcan VX770 which crashed at Syerston on 20th September 1958. I have tried all the obvious archives, museums and companies without success. Please note I am not looking for the Board of Inquiry report into the accident. That is available for all to read, and many to mis-read, at The National Archive at Kew. |
I assume you've seen the article here? - http://xm655.com/blog/wp-content/upl...pring-2011.pdf
It does seem as though the report has been "disappeared". |

Ah, I thought it might be your good self. I hope the report does turn up - you never know, it may have survived in someone's private papers if it was deliberately suppressed.

Have you tried the FAST museum at Farnborough? They hold a large microfiche collection of old RAE reports. |
