Hunter Crash
Craig Penrice - Tarnish 6 - is tonight recovering in hospital after sustaining spinal injuries whilst ejecting from a Hunter following a weekend of air displays at Port Rush.
Craig is likely to be transfered to Nottingham, possibly tonight, for specialist treatment.
Craig survived serious injuries after ejecting from a Lightning several yeras ago, and recovered to go on and become the Eurofighter project pilot at Warton. His temporary loss to the Typhoon programme comes at a critical time as the RAF's first Eurofighter pilots prepare to take delivery of their first aircraft
My best wishes go to Craig for a full and speedy recovery.
