Took off from Penhold in Harvard aircraft with pilot instructor F/O Cooley RCAF and NATO Flt. Cadet Svend Aage Jark of Haderslav, Denmark.
Aircraft failed to return and the wreckage of it was later spotted by a following flight. It had crashed and burned.
Killed; F/O Cooley was buried in Erin Cemetery as noted above. I could find no record for Flt Cadet Jark.
