Initially blamed on pilot error, the official cause was overturned in 2011, sparking renewed calls for the release of century-old sealed files. Des Conroy, whose father died in the crash, insists the aircraft was unfit for flight and that the truth is being buried. His sister Patricia, just 22 when her father died, recalls his loving nature and the enduring pain of loss — yet finds strength in family solidarity during annual wreath-laying ceremonies. MPs like Sorcha Eastwood accuse the government of continuing to conceal information, urging the application of the Hillsborough Law to force truth-telling. The Ministry of Defence expresses sympathy and says it’s engaging with the Chinook Justice Campaign, but won’t comment on matters under independent review — leaving families to wait for answers they believe are long overdue.
