No worries John, totally understand Last I heard were the crew had some minor back injuries from the ejection but that was all.

It's still news though isn't it? As Angels49 said, it's pretty rare for any incident involving the Reds to happen. You could see the crew were ok just from the title so you didn't have to read it if it was just going to annoy you! Just because there's been one big incident in Spain doesn't mean the rest of the worlds aviation news has to be put on hold.. And I don't know whether Cranwell has a barrier but the aircraft ended up hitting the air traffic control tower and some cars that were parked near it.
-
Now reported it wasn't a Reds aircraft, instead just black Hawk but it did come from Scampton.
-
From the BBC website.. However, it is believed that the aircraft touched down on the runway and then an undercarriage leg collapsed, causing the aircraft to veer off the runway and into the ATC carpark.
-
Oops, so it does! Didn't see that, just thought you may have meant the twin seat variant of the F-1, the T-2, rather than the F-2
-
Isn't the F-2 a totally different aircraft? Like building an F-16 for a Jaguar GB Unless you mean the T-2?
-
Nope, you are correct! my mistake, DX has too many shows to be able to remember which one has what aircraft
-
Doesn't look like a bad show. That list doesn't have the Belgian F-16 and SeaKing which should also be displaying too.
-
A lovely collection you've got there, the T5 is my favourite of the bunch.

E-2C Hawkeye, VAW-114 "Hormel Hawgs"

That's a beaut, nicely done Karl. -
You've made great progress Antoine, it's gonna look awesome with all that kit hanging off the wings too!
-
Lovely stuff. Not a fan of that J-22 scheme personally but I think those MiG-29's look the nuts!
-
I really don't like it, I think it's the day-glo bit under the cockpit that makes it look odd.
-
Now I do like that angle on the Seaking, very unusual! True about Farnborough lacking the punch other shows have, and although it is a trade show, I do think it doesn't compare to the likes of ILA and Paris.

Awesome, thanks again Marcus!
