Crome Dome,
I served with your father for a few months in West Berlin in 1982. He conducted my first familiarisation flight around the Berlin Wall. He was a gentleman and an all-round good guy. One of the others killed in the accident was a friend of mine. Taff, or Eighty-Four to his mates.
I was on duty at Oakington in '86 when the signal arrived telling of the accident. Sad day for me and the Corps.

Hi

After all these years, I have come across this.

I can assist with information, if still required? My brother was also killed on the fatal Lynx flight.

If you want further help, please let me know…
