🛫 Taking off on 3 November 1948, at around 10:15AM from Scampton, Lincolnshire for Burtonwood USAF base, near Warrington, England, it was a routine flight with 2 other aircrafts for 'Over Exposed!'. When the plane failed to arrive at it's destination, an air search was initiated. 🕵️ By chance, members of the Harpur Hill RAF Mountain Rescue Unit were just finishing an exercise two and a half miles away, so they quickly made their way to the scene of the crash but there was nothing that could have been done for any of the 13 members of the crew.
