Default Mosquito crash in Gippsland 1952
Hi

I was down at the local library yesterday . A elderly guy was asking the librarian about a Mossie that crashed at Stratford in Gippsland in 1952 . Turns out he was in the RAAF down there and the pilot was his mate .

The librarian was looking at old copies of the GIPPSLANDER newspaper on line , after he left she found the article about the crash . Both crew were killed , this chap knew the pilot , Wilson, and flew with him.
