Description
On Thursday night of the 10th January 1952, Aer Lingus Flight EI 165, en route from Northolt (London) to Collinstown (Dublin), crashed in the Snowdonia mountains. All of the 23 occupants were killed. Four months later, the British government held a public Inquiry into the crash of the Saint Kevin airliner and shortly after, issued a report detailing the causes of the crash. In this final volume, 'Shamrock 165 Volume III - Thy Will be Done', Gawain Cymraeg offers compelling evidence as to what really unfolded in the skies above Snowdonia. A question the author was frequently asked was, "How could they have left our loved ones in a watery-bog-hole atop a lonely mountain?". The evidence offered herein gives the victims' loved ones an alternative perspective as to why the contemporaneous powers-that-be arrived at the 'desired' results at all three levels in the post-crash investigative processes. This sheds light on the reason why the entire Saint Kevin airliner - complete with wings and engine - was permanently consigned to the indented bog of the Cwm Edno plateau. And, in this wilful abandonment, the vast majority of the occupants' remains along with their suitcases and personal belongings, were also condemned to this indefinite erasement. That an Irishman, who volunteered and became a War aviator hero for another country, would be abandoned for all eternity in a watery grave on a desolate mountaintop, is one thing. The fact that, in death, he would be ignominiously accused of a series of gross misnavigational errors, truly beggars belief. The true spirit of Captain Keohane's legacy is the spirit of truth - justice will prevail.
