BOAC Mosquito crash site

Some years ago I was talking to a guy who had been visiting some of the remote aircraft crash sites in Scotland, including one for a BOAC Mosquito.

Trying to find out a bit more about this, but can’t find anything on the web – anyone help?

Hi Cees

We’ve recovered usable parts from the majority of those sites.

Cheers

Parts of this aircraft among which were elevator(s) etc. are used on Tony Agars Mosquito restoration.
The site also shows some very substantial Audax bits, would make a nice addition to Guy Blacks Hawker bi-plane stable. The Whitley remains are still there?, if not it would cost Elliott a few days off I think.:p

Cheers

Illustration of the aircraft here. It would probably have been flying between Leuchars and Bromma.
