It would seem that Craig deliberately pointed the Hunter into the peat bog 7 miles north of Aberystwyth after a (Major) problem. He ejected (God bless the Martin Baker 3H) and was tranfered to Bronglais General Hospital, Aberystwyth by a Seaking from RAF Valley. He has back injuries, but is concious (sp?). He will be flown out to Nottinham this eve for "specialist treatment". Mend quickly Craig.


Aberystwyth seems to be a magnet for Hunter crashes as this is the 4th that I can remember within the time I've lived here. (along with JP's, Buccs, Phantoms and Tornados)
