BBC saying it failed to come out of a loop and struck cars on the A27. Multiple casualties, air ambulance in attendance, not good. Some witnesses say part of wing separated prior to crash. Photos of fireballs with lots of black smoke. I fear the pilot most unlikey to have survived.
7 dead so far, but the pilot pulled from the wreckage alive and now in ICU in Brighton.
From the local news it looks like it crashed through the road junction by what used to be the Sussex Pad pub.
Very sad day for all and tomorrows show cancelled

As the discussion continues on this accident on R&N, I'm sure causal factors will come to light, which will be worthy of discussion here. It is our responsibility as pilots to assure the most safe flight for the circumstances, we will learn from this event.....
