More terrible news.....
« on: July 12, 2003, 04:21:46 PM »
UK's Duxford Annual classic fighter airshow was on today (and tomorrow) and unfortunately there has been another fatal crash.

The 2 pilots were unfortunately both killed.

The aircraft was a Navy Fairey firefly, one of only 3 flying in the world.

Im kind of glad I'm going tomorrow and didnt go today! I wouldnt want to see anything like this.Seems to be happening more and more regularly at airshows doesnt it? :(

Well I'll add any news i hear about it in the days to come and im sure there will be further news on the Duxford web page at some later stage.real shame.

I was there. There's a thread in the O-club about it called 'Firefly down'...
