Bronco Team crash in Kemble

Just in, Belgian Bronco crash landed in Kemble this afternoon. Reports from somebody close to the pilot, reports the pilot is not too badly hurt and has been flown to a local hospital. Aircraft burnt out.

Thoughts with the pilot, friends and family!

More info welcome.

I was unfortunate to witness it today! He was performing a climb roll inverted then attempted to pull out of the loop but run out of height! The crews at Kemble where attending which I will add the Kemble fire crew where very professional and the fire was put out very quick. A pat on the back for them but still thoughts with the pilot. :-(

Update, with a wonderful idea from Tony's sister...

Bringing this thread up-to-date, I have a request to be passed on from Tony's sister Sonja who I'm in touch with:

Speaking to Sonja recently, she has had a wonderful idea to do a 'recovery diary' for Tony to read once he is able to, to show him how much support he has been receiving here in the UK. I have offered to collate any input and pass it on to her so she can print messages off.. So this is the chance for anyone who wishes to send a personal message to Tony to be included in the diary.
I hope Sonja gets a load to add in, judging from the huge support already shown on various forums which I've seen?

If anyone wishes to pass their messages on - please send them to me via PM and they WILL get passed on to Sonja. By all means include your real name etc, not just forum ID - especially if you've met Tony at a show etc as he may remember you!

Hopefully I will be meeting her next weekend as she is making a trip to the UK to visit Tony so I will soon find out how he's recovering too...
