I remember someone telling me that Tim McLean (the man who died that night) had mentioned that there was going to be an accident, due to noise fatigue, if someone didn't get some better run up screens or cages (which he had drawn pictures of the cages that rolled onto the flight line within a day or two after he died. He was 19 years old when he died and I also heard he had a child born shortly after he arrived at Takhli and was short when he died. He never got to see his child. Here's his info:
