I heard from a newspaper in the NE of Scotland that it was a millionaire who lives just outside of Aberdeen. He was taking a flight test. The examiner was the one killed and he escaped with a dislocated shoulder

The incident you mention was a crash at Humberside airport a couple of weeks ago.

On Tuesday 7th there was another out of Sandtoft which also crashed.

Two in as many weeks isn't good news. Thoughts are with the families.

It was on the local news last night and basically you could not tell that it was the wreckage of an aircraft. I don't wish to give his identity as I don't think it is my place to do so but may I offer my condolences to his family and friends.
