Another red arrows accident, did not take the press long

There has been another accident today, although it happened on the ground, my thoughts are with family ad friends that all will be ok.

I was just amazed when I went to pick up my daughter from school, at how quickly the tv news crews had got to school, plus what could we possibly know other than what had ready been reported!!!

A sad day

Oh no, how sad! I hope everyone involved will be okay.

Just googled it, and the Telegraph have this to say....

It has been a very quiete day, we presumed that the 2nd flight did not go up because of the fog

Hoping this will have a good ending

I imagine they are going to get hammered with stringent investigating after the two incidents in such close proximity! xx

[Rudey]

Oh god no! That is so sad. Thoughts are with his family and friends. xx
