Anyone know any details?

In the Village I live called Wickwar in South Glos a Microlight came down in front of a friend of my family's, the Microlight hit powerlines and the pilot badly hurt and burnt, he was from the Reading area aparently, and aparently he was coming in to land as there is a guy who owns microlights in the village and I guess he was visiting him.
The power was out in the village for a time and the Air Ambulance was called etc etc and police/fire engines everywhere.
My thoughts go to him and his family and hope he makes a speedy recovery.

Dean.
