[The pair from 230 and 33 Squadrons died when their Puma Mk 2 aircraft
crashed while landing at NATO base Resolute Support in the capital Kabul.
They were among five people killed in the crash, while five others were injured.
A spokeswoman for the Ministry of Defence said: "The incident is currently
under investigation but we can confirm that it was an
accident and not the result of insurgent activity."]
