German sensitive matter – crash at Parliament

Hi I do not wish to cause offence or raise an issue that will cause someone pain but I have not seen a reference here to the Biplane which crashed at the German Parliment two days ago – can anybody enlighten me. It looked to be an early German type such as a FW.

Regards

I think we’ve established there is no historic aircraft involved.

Feel free to reopen on GD or GA as appropriate

Clunk!

Ooooh a TRA, that will stop them. Blowing themselves up is one thing but I’m sure they wouldn’t be happy about breaking an aviation law before they do it..

Seriously, it begs the question “what happens if an aircraft is within the TRA?” I wonder if there are some ground to air somethings hidden?

Ooops – getting off topic I guess…

A 10 mile, 10,000ft TRA has been established around London since the events of last week.

Naturally, all the german politicians are now scared to death of being the target of a similar dive bombing and are trying to rush through a blanket ban on light aircraft within 100km radius of parliament!

From the news reports here it was a homebuilt of some sort.
