Terrible news from my neck of the woods, Hunter crash at Shoreham (EGKA) airshow.

I always look forward to the Shoreham airshow as it's just down the road from me. Today was one of those rare days when flying becomes deadly:

I was watching Hunter from my lounge and didn't realise the smoke I saw a few minutes later was it actually crashing. There was that awful quiet pause then all I could hear was sirens for the next hour.

 

My thoughts go out to all those caught up in this, it's not looking too pretty down there at the moment.

 

i'd just like to thank XH558 for doing a single fly-past, total respect to the crew.

 

Keep safe.

Such an horrific event Simon, We have our tickets sitting here because we could not make it yesterday...I will donate my refund if given to the victims of this terrible accident.

Was stunned watching it unfold on a day were they had good weather and a great show planned ...god bless all involved
