Re: Red Arrow down
Mixed reports, I herd earlier this afternoon not long after it happened that the pilot ejected into the river and walkers pulled him out, but sadly also just herd that the pilot was thrown from the aircraft on impact and unfortunately died

Re: Red Arrow down
They have a pilot and a navigator, so maybe the navigator ejected

Re: Red Arrow down
For what they do, they've a good safety record, and this sounds like machinery failure?
RIP Eggman you gave a lot of folk, a lot of pleasure

Re: Red Arrow down
The red arrows do have 2 seats. Whether they use them all the time is another thing though.
There was no report of any ejection yet. |
