Following on from the recent USAF Thunderbirds and USN Blue Angels crashes recently on same day, today has seen two more display team crashes involving the Patrouille De Suisse during a display in Holland, two of the F-5 were involved in a mid-air, with one a/c crashing into a lake (pilot ejected) and the other was able to land at Leeuwarden AB.
Also, one of the Russian Knights aircraft crashed near Moscow today, the pilot being killed, but I believe this was as the team were RTB, and not during a display.
