I am M.C.V. Egan author of The Bridge of Deaths http://www.thebridgeofdeaths.com.
The book centers around the true events of the 1939 crash of the Lockheed Electra 10A from British Airways LTD.
It crashed in Denmark on August 15th, 1939. I joined impdb.org when I found three photos of the airplane on your site. I wanted information on the photograph showing then British Prime Minister Neville Chamberlain stepping out of the G-AESY. I was under the impression that all of the PM's trips during the Munich Pact were on a Lockheeh 14 the G-AEPN, I believe.
The Bridge of Deaths is a novel, however all data I found in various archives in the UK and Denmark in regards to the plane are carefully documented footnoted.

Welcome M.C.V.! Like I said on your talk page on the wiki, I am thrilled you decided to join us!
It was one of our fantastic contributors who goes by the username Sixcyl that was able to put this great page/documentary together for us and of course provide those shots. Had you not seen them before? It's neat to hear that you have found more information even after you had basically stopped your research. The book actually sounds quite interesting. I might have to pick one up. Do you have an interest in aircraft/aviation or was it mostly surrounding the crash?
