112 Sqn pilot Bef Jun52. Killed 27Jul52.
Notes: Failed to recover from an unauthorised attack on a civilian Dominie and crashed 2m SW of Haywards Heath. Robin Brown's book "Shark Squadron" tells a slightly different tale:" The Squadron's first fatal accident occurred during a detachment to RAF Odiham on 27Jul52 when P/O C R Donaldson flying No 2 to F/O Keith Williamson was involved in a dog-fight with the Odiham Meteors. He appears to have lost control and dived away vertically, startling a passing Anson pilot who though he was being bounced, but the Vampire never pulled out."

Jever Details - Unit/Role Arrived Departed
4 Sqn pilot. Bef May53. 19Nov55.
Notes: Svc No: 4043990 Fg Off 7Nov52.  From Ron Gray's Notes (21Mar06): "Snowy and myself spent a considerable time building model aircraft, most of which were destroyed by misfortune or intent.  I have cine of my Comet, which was launched by Snowie from the tower of 4 Sqn. Hanger.  It was loaded with a thunderflash, which made a swift end to it.  It was prior to the sad demise of the BOAC Comet's.  Snowie was a top-scoring pilot on both air to air at Sylt, and air to ground at Meppen Ranges.  He was attached to LECONFIELD for tests using the Sabre radar gunsight to determine the best radar reflector to fit on the flags.  He and I were returned to UK at the same time and we travelled in his sports car via Dover.  This was before RORO ferries and the car was lifted on and off by ships derrick.  We were searched and questioned for 2½ hours, the car had its floorboards taken out and the boot torn apart.  We had to put it back together even though nothing amiss could be found.  I was accused of importing cameras, although the receipts showed they were over two years old.  A nightmare.  Stayed with Snowie and his mother for two nights at Chalfont-St.-Giles.  His girl friend was a stunning film star.  Never got to meet her!  Snowie was killed while flying asymmetric on a Meteor 7 while once more at LECONFIELD(?)"

93 Sqn Sgt. pilot. 25Nov50. 3Mar52 from Celle. 3Jan53. To OCTU.
Notes: Svc No: 4034662 Commissioned. P/O: 2Apr53. One of the founder members of the Black Arrows Formation Aerobatic Team. Pete Jennings tells us: "Dave Garratt was Standard bearer on the day ACM Harry Broadhurst presented the Standard to 111 sqn at RAF North Weald April 30th 1957. You may recall he had previously ejected from the Vulcan at Heathrow along with the Captain after they hit the ground, short!, on landing, and other crew members were killed. Dave Garratt was involved in a midair ( well extremely close to the ground ) collision with Derek Hall during an aerobatic practice at Weald on 7 Jun 57. ' Straw ' Hall had to divert to Stanstead as his A/C was barely manageable under 200kts. After landing the port wing was moving up and down several inches. Poor Dave G did not have a chance."
