Thank you Roy but the crash doesn't appear on either site. I had found the forum but it's one of those that's so annoying because no-one is posting there any more.

Can anyone give me an idea of where to look for details of a plane crash in 1942. My Uncle Dennis Studd was killed in a crash near Oxford in June 1942. He was a flight instuctor in the Airforce so I suppose they might have more details but I don't know where to start. Any ideas gratefully received.
