Anglia Television reports:

"A pilot who died in a plane crash in Northamptonshire has been named as Paul Morgan, from Brixworth near Northampton. He was an engine specialist with the McLaren Formula One racing team. He was landing at Sywell Airport near Wellingborough when the accident happened yesterday afternoon. Investigations are continuing today into the cause of the accident."

Condolences to his family and friends.

Isn't it a sad reflection of the times in which we live that a report of a Spitfire crashing (now apparently confirmed as a Sea Fury) is relegated from R&N to 'Non Air Transport' Issues.
