BBC reporting pilot pulled out and now in hospital, hope not too serious, but those stills look frightening.

Good to hear the pilot got out.

A bit further east and it would have hit the Ricardo site. They have quite a large fuel store on site, which would have made things interesting......

Eyewitness on Sky news who did sound like she knew what she was talking about described it as a Hunter T7.

Latest on BBC news is it crashed across the A27 hitting several cars , the A27 is closed in both directions .
Prayers for all those involved .

They also posted a picture of a burning plane that wasn't a Hunter initially but have now removed it.

The Vulcan has just done a slow flyover, but obviously no display.

Very sad for all affected.

Whilst I do hope the pilot survived I'll be amazed if he/she has! RIP to all those who have sadly died...

Says that video is private.

Looking at the pictures it seems to have crashed near the Sussex Pad pub, that's where I normally watch from but today I'm at a family party. I wish all the best to those involved.
