My thoughts go out to those who tragically lost their lives today and their families & friends! I was rather shocked to hear of this accident especially as I flew close by shortly afterwards, returning from Halton in a Chippie - I heard the sad news from a friend on landing.

The weather was great and there were a few other aircraft up, including a handful of gliders, enjoying the conditions; it did not seem overly busy, though. Will wait to see what the BOI says but gliders and Tutors can be hard to spot on a day such as today.
