Circumstances:
The crew departed Croydon Airport at 2055LT on a night cargo service to Berlin with an intermediate stop in Cologne. At that time, weather conditions were considered as good, except a strong west wind up to 50 mph. Less than an hour into the flight, while cruising over the North Sea, the airplane crashed in unknown circumstances. A wheel was found the following day by the crew of a Belgian ship but no trace of the aircraft named 'Marmara' nor the two crew members was ever found.
