The Great Mull Air Mystery
In 1975, a pilot in a small plane makes a mysterious unscheduled night flight, and goes missing.
Several months later, the pilot's body is found, close by the air base from which he took off.
His plane is found even later, sunk in the ocean.
Did he jump from the plane in mid-air? No injuries consistent with that.
Did he escape the downed plane and swim to shore? No traces of sea water on the corpse.
Read the details here of this still-baffling enigma.
