Aye one dead and the last I heard the other one is still critical. A sad day indeed.

Rotten luck to have this engine failure, hope they recover.

Moggy, I wear just the same, the suit gives me lots of pockets for my camera bits and pieces as a bonus.

70% burns survivable 90% burns chances poor – hope reports are incorrect

70% burns survivable 90% burns chances poor – hope reports are incorrect with respect to % burns of crash victims.
Wish them both a safe recovery in hospital

Ravenair Traumahawk. Casualties with 70% and 60% burns reported elsewhere.

Serious enough for me to be glad I invariably wear a nomex flight suit and leather gloves, even in a docile little trainer aircraft.

Two with burns

BBC Radio news 2pm reports the houses the ‘plane hit were empty, but that the two persons aboard the plane have been taken to hospital with 70% and 90% burns respectively :-(.

Heres hoping they have swift recoveries.
