It's bad, the EAA put tons of work into this brilliant show every year, such a shame....

What a shame.

It l;ooks like the micro and ultra-lights fared the worst.

Sent an SMS to a mate who is out there when I saw the first reports last night.

He was in the hangar next to the marquee that collapsed, putting quite a few folk in hospital, and estimates 40% of the aircraft at the event were damaged.

At the time of the reply, he said another storm was due through in 30 minutes, and with true British stoicism was having a good strong cup of tea in preparation...

Sad to see.

I guess you can tie down as much as you want but if the actual airframe structure isn't strong enough........
