Narrative:Crashed into the North Sea following a catastrophic failure of the left hand engine. The intensity of the subsequent fire melted the flying control rods which rendered the aircraft uncontrollable. Both crew ejected and were picked up by a Sea King but the navigator was killed during the ejection sequence after suffering severe head injuries. Further details in the MAAS at Reference 5.
