Very bad news.
Possible forced landing?
Some reports suggesting the pilot is ok.

I note that it is now ‘Pending’ on the PF website.
(It will be interesting to see who the new owner/owners are if the deal goes through).

Well, £3.1 million was the final figure.
However, some people in the live comments were suggesting it didn’t sell because it failed to meet the estimated minimum of £3.5 million, and that the auctioneer didn’t say the prized word of ‘Sold’.
There didn’t appear to be a reserve, but I’m sure we’ll soon find out if it did find a new owner.
