As far as I can see, just one Meteor was lost during April 1946……

23 April 1946

245 Squadron
Meteor III EE293
RAF Colerne

Causality

F/O. Desmond William Machray Crawshaw

The pilot was making a single engined landing crosswind but he allowed the aircraft to stall and it spun into the ground.

Details from ‘Final Landings’ – C. Cummings

Hope this is a help
