Elaine, your cousin was killed in the crash of Hastings C1, TG602, near RAF Shallufa, Egypt, on 12 January 1953. The starboard elevator broke away from the aircraft, followed very shortly therafter by the port elevator. As you mention, it then dived into the ground.

There were 5 crew and 4 passengers, including your cousin on board at the time. All perished in the accident.
