No disrespect to the pilot who lost his life but isn’t 79 a little bit to old to be flying solo in a high performance aircraft, i’m sure he will of no doubt under gone numerous tests every year but it just seems to be pushing it, anyway a sad loss of life RIP John Harris.

Sad loss of life. XS105 was the Gnat in the static during the massive gathering of aircraft types at Abingdon in 1968 that was organised for H.M. to review to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the RAF .
