Charles, Edward Andrew (Flying Officer)

The CF-100, operated by the No. 3 Operational Training Unit was in company of a second CF-100, flying quite low near Restoule, Ontario. One of the aircraft then dipped below tree level and a flash was seen in the night sky.

The aircraft was found near the eastern end of Bass Lake, having disintegrated in flames. The bodies of both crew members, Flying Officer E.A. Charles and Flying Officer G.R. Ormiston, were found near the wreckage.
