Yes, I saw the sad news at https://aviation-safety.net/wikibase/wiki.php?id=188562 , too. At first I understood there's no casualties, but one source mentions one occupant dead? That would be even more sad.

Salisbury Journal is now reporting one fatality and one survivor taken to Salisbury Hospital.

Sad news.
Thoughts are with family and friends.

Yes, that's far more essential. My sympathy with all concerned, relatives and friends and fellow aviators - and to the one who survived.

(and thanks to the kind soul who adjusted the thread title)

On another forum there is a FR24 trace which suggests the a/a was operating from Boscombe Down and possibly heading back there. Vertical descend at end of flight pretty high. Was it under test by military trainee pilot?

The Salisbury Times link says it was operated by the Empire Test Pilot School.
