I witnessed the crash you refer to, it was not a pretty sight. The F6 was no 2 of a pair.After the aircraft had climbed to about 50 ft it flipped wing tip over wing wing tip twice before regaining momentarily a wings level attitude,by this time it had lost forward speed ,dropped like a stone and crashed into a chicken farm the other side of the road that ran alongside the airfield boundary. The canopy was seen to release but unfortunately the ejection was not successful.
