Reason for Loss Returned from leave on the morning of the 6 Oct 1943 and was sent up in a Typhoon aircraft to do some local flying and familiarize himself with the aircraft again. After being airborne for roughly 30 minutes, he became engaged in a mock dogfight with two other friendly aircraft of another squadron, and after a few moments of this type of flying, his aircraft got out of control when making a tight turn and got into a spin from which he was unable to straighten out, thus diving into the ground and being killed instantaneously.
