Sorry don't know much apart from:

They were both students on No2 course at ETPS

From accident reports concernig aircraft they were flying Price-Owen was still on A Sqn in Dec 46 but in May 49 was flying from Bitteswell for Armstrong Siddeley. He died in 1969.

Starkey was still on B Sqn in April 45 but in November 54 was flying from Bitteswell for Armstrong Siddeley.

Regards

John

Waldo Price Own

Hi, I know it's been a few years since you posted the question about Waldo Price Owen, but Waldo was my Step Grandfather and you would be welcome to PM me for any further information on him, also his Son and Daughter are alive and well and would no doubt be happy to provide any information.
