This weeks trip out was to Mynydd Moel by Cader Idris with Jarratt Mccoy
and dogs, to look for Wellington HX433 which hit the sheer face near the
summit on the 28th May 1942 during a fuel consumption test from Harwell
with the sad loss of the 6 crew, at the site I found much more then I
was expecting on the scree below the impact area many small parts are
scattered over the slope but then it is way off the beaten track and a
foot killing slog
