Research is ongoing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Sonny was on board Halifax PP349 which departed from RAF Linton-on-Ouse. Shortly after takeoff, while in the initial climb, the crew informed ground that a fire had erupted on board and elected to return for an emergency landing. During a last turn to the left, the aircraft went out of control, lost height and crashed in a huge explosion in a field on the Tancred Estate, between Whixley &amp; Linton on Ouse, located 2 and a half miles southwest of the airfield. All seven crew members were killed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Pilot, S\/L Kenneth Searby Stammers DFC, AFC, DFM, 65989. <br>F\/E, William Ian Harvey, 176669.  <br>Flight Sergeant Sonny Fox. <br>LAC, John Charles Simpson, 1530898. <br>LAC, Glyndwr Pritchard, 1653762. <br>LAC, Hampton Sharling, 1500420.
