This is truly sad news, and one of three crashes that we have suffered in just a few weeks in the European vintage aircraft community (two fatal). Let’s pray for all involved, and hope that the remainder of the season remains incident free. A sad, sad time. 🙁

Oh dear, I would have been at Couhé-Vérac today but for pressure of work. My condolences to those who are connected to this sad loss.

One of the news reports appears to show John Day in the Popham-based Dr1 replica. This was NOT the aeroplane in question.
