Can anyone elaborate on the crash of this Sunderland on 4 June 1955 in the vicinity of Eastbourne, East Sussex? Various websites refer to the crash but say no more than that it occured with the loss of 4 lives from the crew of 14. I am sure that there will be forum members with access to sources of information, concerning the crash of this aeroplane, that I do not have.

Yes I was working on the new M&S store at the time and stood on the beach
