You are correct about the Jonathan King connection with this group. He wrote the song Good News Week he also wrote the B side Are You Afraid Of Love? JK also produced both songs. The song was a hit in the UK and received extensive air play.
However I do not think he was part of the group. At the time it was said that the group were serving members of the RAF (Royal Air Force) When pilots fly at low altitude they call it 'Hedge hopping'
As far as I know after this initial success they sank without trace. Or, went down in flames.
As a matter of interest Jonathan King is currently serving a jail sentence, he became too fond of little boys.
