Ladies and Gents,
Earlier today, sadly, there was a fatal accident involving a light aircraft on take-off from Fenland, UK.
While the cause is not officially known, the following has been reported by
bose–x on the Private Flying thread:
This was a sad case of someone attempting a steep turn at low level after what looked like an EFATO to land back on the 36 runway. I was in the overhead at the time joining for fuel and another of our guys was on base as the accident happened.
Whatever the case, our thoughts go out to the family and friends of the pilot at this dreadful time. If,
and it is only “if”, this accident is as reported above, given what we have been discussing, it is very sobering indeed.
A very sad day – my sincere condolences to all affected by this tragic accident.
