Dave,
A contact, DaveW, has come up with the following info on Nixon and Solari........
"Nixon and Solari were found dead on 6 November 1943 following the crash of Beaufighter LZ455, 2 OAPU, at Beinn Bhreac, Mull of Kintyre on 30 October".
The Beaufighter was on a ferry flight.
Seems this rules them out of being the Oxford crew members..
