The Sick Moon Posted July 18, 2014 Author Share Posted July 18, 2014 Possibly already being discussed. Oh well that's me told then. I should have known that the semi literate thread title one sees on the front page as The Great Game Revisted Uk should be all about a breaking news story of an air disaster. Silly me.

thollag faiyr Posted July 18, 2014 Share Posted July 18, 2014 This is yet another in a long line of false flag operations by the west. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thollag faiyr Posted July 18, 2014 Share Posted July 18, 2014 It's a conspiracy, but why "nutjob"? Are you really that ignorant of history? Do you need me to spoon-feed you a list of real false flag operations which are a matter of historical record? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thomas Jefferson Posted July 18, 2014 Share Posted July 18, 2014 Bobbie, since you're so smart, do tell us about the burning of the Reichstag, or the Gulf of Tonkin Incident(s). Do tell us about Operation Northwoods. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barrie Stevens Posted July 18, 2014 Share Posted July 18, 2014 One incident I have not seen reported from the past is the Royal Navy shooting down a (presumably) Aer Lingus civilian flight from Dublin to Liverpool in the early 1940s. This was the regular Collinstown to Liverpool mail packet with passengers. The Irish 'plane gave the password of the day before by way of pre-arranged recognition for a neutral entering a war zone and was shot down at once! I was told this by an uncle who was there and serving on the ship that did it namely a World War One cruiser converted to be a floating anti-aircraft gun battery anchored off the Mersey somewhere. Perhaps both London and Dublin kept it quiet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Wright Posted July 18, 2014 Share Posted July 18, 2014 an ex aer lingus plane was shot down in 1941 off the Scilly Isles but not en route from Dublin to Liverpool. a Cork to London Viscountl flight crashed into the Irish Sea/St Georges Channel in the 1960's and it was suggested that it was downed by a British missile, however after two or three investigations, and suggestions it had been a mid air collision with a French Military aircraft, it was discovered a lot of the service records were missing and these were reconstructed and the final investigation report concluded metal fatigue in the tail, possibly exacerbated by bird strike. I suspect your uncles story is apocryphal or an urban myth. There were only two flights a week to Liverpool during wartime, it was the only route they operated outside Ireland (and was frequently diverted to Barton) and mail went by boat. Aer Lingus only had 3 or 4 aircraft, loss of a third of the fleet would have been hard to hush up But we can never be certain Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chinahand Posted July 18, 2014 Share Posted July 18, 2014 I know I shouldn't feed the obsession, but the issue with "semi literate"* thread titles is, well ... so coincidental, hey. I should have known that the semi literate thread title one sees on the front page as The Great Game Revisted Uk should be all about a breaking news story of an air disaster. Silly me. *Shouldn't there be a hyphen in semi-literate? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barrie Stevens Posted July 19, 2014 Share Posted July 19, 2014 John! I was told that story about the Irish plane shot down off Liverpool well over half a century ago.. My uncle, 1924-2007 told me because I asked that age old question "What did you do in the war?!..He told me... He was on this WW1 cruiser used as a floating gun platform off the Mersey..Now I may have got it wrong about the flight schedule. I recall being told it was a daily flight. However! But he told me that they only shot down two aircraft : The Irish mail packet and a Hurricane that came at them out of the sun. It was a Free Polish pilot I was told. That uncle became a big man in the world of shipowning. At his funeral many attended from around the world. I believe him. The family at the time were all in the Royal Navy my mother included. He was there. We were not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
