The names of the five victims are:

2nd Lt. Clifford Clarence Reichert (pilot), 2nd Lt. John Peter Dockerill (telegraphist/gunner), 2nd Lt. Gordon Mitchell McLean (flight engineer), 2nd Lt. Joseph Earl Monohan (bomb aimer) and 2nd Lt. William Searle (gunner).

Two occupants survived the accident: 2nd Lt. George Iric Pridham (telegrapher/gunner) and 2nd Lt. James Coyle Brown Russell (navigator).
