Classic British Flight Sim

Dreadful news. Cant bear to watch the video.

This is a black day indeed for the British airshow scene - not since Farnborough 1952 has there been members of the public killed by a crash at a UK airshow - although technically outside the airfield.

My condolences to the seven, at least, who've died. And hope the pilot pulls through.

Very sad news indeed. Condolences to everyone involved in this tragic incident.

RIP and condolences.

Just too awful.

I know this location very well as I attended Lancing College as a child and was frequent visitor to the air show when I still lived in the area. At least one friend of mine was at the airshow, thankfully wasn't injured but was struggling last night with unpleasant mental images of what he witnessed, he told me. One friend of an former school friend of mine is apparently amongst the dead. A very tragic accident and a very sad day. RIP to all those killed

So tragic for all involved.

There has also been a fatal collision between two ultralights in a formation flight at a Swiss display. One pilot appears to have survived but the other did not.
