Ah yes, I have the book Chris, excellent piece of historical work.

Are you looking into the Beaufighter that crashed on the opposite side of the river to the Stanners at Warkworth? I believe there is still a gap in the hedge above the river, but that was my fathers' heresay that I have not had confirmed.
I also remember seeing one of Acklington's Whirlwinds on the back of a truck after a heavy landing in the dunes at Warkworth - late sixties? both crew and heli were probably repairable so I have not found any references to it!
