Pilot’s Fatal Disobedience
(Received 10-30 a.m.) LONDON, September 7
It was disclosed at the inquest at Edmonton, Middlesex, where a plane crashed on top of two houses, causing 11 deaths, that the pilot Sergeant S. R. Morris, was acting against instructions in flying in that district.
Tire jury returned a verdict that the deaths were due to accidental causes. Tire Air Ministry intimated that it would not disclose the findings of its own inquiries into the case, as it was a service aircraft.
