A Hurricane crashed at Shoreham airshow today killing the pilot. Sad to see another grand old lady of the sky's die, but they need to be treated with great respect and gentleness in their old age.
Condolences to the pilot and his family for their loss but no doubt he was doing what he loved most. Just hope theres not calls now to call off these shows, the pilots are well aware of the risks taken just as those in motor racing are.
Always risks when messin about in planes. Sad loss of pilot and Hurricane. I would think statisically there is high chance of an air crash at a display.
Amazing how the health & safety police allow these events.
We're all doomed! Head for the hills before they start heading for you!
