A tear was shed and a drink was raised to lost friends and colleagues. Our thoughts go out to the family and friends at this awful time.

Their names will be published by MoD at 0900Z this morning.

For Training Risky. Make no assumptions until the names are released.

Ladies and Gentlemen. This is neither the time nor the place to make out of place comments of ANY kind. Please refrain from doing so.

I am personally very angry that we have lost some of our finest once again. I despair, but my thoughts, and those of my colleagues in PPRuNe are with them and we offer our condolences to their families.

RIP fellas, you will not be forgotten.

Unhappy RIP

Dazzer and your colleagues - words cannot adequately express our sadness at the news of your loss. Our heartfelt sympathies go out to your families, friends (a group that I am proud to be part of), colleagues at JHF(I), 847, 28 Sqn, Benson and CHF.

Rest in Peace all of you - you are in a far better place than those of us left behind. We will raise a glass or four in your honour tonight.

Mr and Mrs Snafu

God has no greater grace than to give those who fly, the wings of angels.

My thoughts and condolences to the families and friends of those lost.

Heard the names on the 'Grape Vine' this morning.
A terrible day and a terrible loss.
My thoughts are with all the families, especially Lee, a former collegue of my wife. Our thoughts are with you on the sad loss of Sarah-Jayne.
