I was on the photo bus north side when this happened. As we were driving along the line of static jets some one said ' goodness gracious' or something similar, where upon we looked back and saw a MiG spiralling down.
Thirty seconds earlier, we'd been there. Driving back we could see bits of aircraft littering the ramp. What was impressive was how fast the Wessex parked there got airborne. If you're reading this, sir, blood well done, and to the emergency teams who made an equally rapid effort.
