Such skilled pilots, this is a strange and saddening accident.

But Mr Pilot would have held onto that plane as long as possible to keep from causing civvie casualties, Hes even more of a hero for that than the epic flying
RIP

Such a shame, my thoughts go out to the family and friends of the pilot, according to a group on facetube his name was Flight Lieutenant John Egging, RIP.
this has just been put up....
some sort of fault with the plane???

I was watching bbc news this morning, some sort if aviation "expert" also thought that something had dramatically failed on the plane.
Would be a disorientated pilot or component failure. The RAF will find out in time.
sad news
no doubt the governments knee jerk reaction will be to ground the Arrows for good.
the hawk is their primary fast jet trainer.... and is sold worldwide.... they'll be searching frantically for the reason this crash happened...
the latest theory is bird strike..
this is so sad, i couldn`t believe it when i heard today, the red arrows are such a great british tradition, that its a real tragedy that they have been grounded for now, rest in peace Flt Lt Jon Egging
