I G Whittaker 1998.
The map sheet and quasi-administrative area assigned to this record are essentially arbitrary, being derived from the unverified location that is cited by Whittaker; this places the loss off Stroma.
The aircraft may have been lost within the area designated as Maritime - Orkney.
