[Mayhem]

Yeah saw this, RIP to the lady PR crew member who perished. Looks to me like the pilot tried to turn back for the field following engine failure on take off, presumably to avoid the built up area. Shame they didn't quite make it.

Great to see our sh*t rag the S*n running with an accurate headline as always. How can an aeroplane possibly crash 'mid-air' all on it's own?! Reckon they're mistaking the ejector seats for something else. Idiots.

Always sad when something like that happens. RIP.

”Well the plane thingy was in the middle of the air when it crashed innit” Quality !

I'm thinking flight control issues .. more so than engine failure ... but time will tell

Yes RIP.😢

Sad to see this happen to anybody.

Snowbirds CT 114 Tutors Two seaters. Apologies, apparently I was mistaken about the seats being tandem they are side by side. Looks as thou they ejected  low resulting  failed chutes. Some witnesses claim that the  Pilots chute failed to open and he landed on a house roof with serious injuries. The woman same but with a fatal result. Sad indeed.
