MULTIPLE RAW VIDEOS of plane crashing! Sussex, England

Yeah. If my kid gets killed by a falling branch because lightning cracked it, that is an awful accident. If he gets burned alive because a frickin air show is going on and a plane wrecks into my house due to stunt flying, that is needless and preventable.

Hopefully the pilot will be hanged.

howmanyfucking times do they have to keep doing that stupidass crazy stunt before they bane it? ffs at least half of the airshow carshes you see nowadays are from that asinine maneuver...idjiota

Oh shit.. Police and "the yard" are threatening people who post photos and bids of the crash with "hindering a criminal investigation" !!!!
Kinda like a car smashing into a pub on a roundabout - criminal activity..

Oopps, should be "vids" not "bids".

Oopps, should be "vids" not "bids".

The liveleak video. "Did someone check that car?" "Believe the engine fell on it. I think he is swished."

Up theirs.

I'd have to agree. Engine failure during the maneuver?
He definitely stalled it.

I don't think it was pilot error and there's no way that loop was in the official flight plan, no way!

Interestingly the Hawker Hunter was one of the first planes to be trialed with "fly by wire", was this perhaps a hack?

Notice the downward part of the loop is flattened, before attempted recovery, was this the fraction of a second where the pilot over rode the fly by wire to regain control?

From wiki on fly by wire:

"At about the same time in the United Kingdom a trainer variant of the British Hawker Hunter fighter was modified at the British Royal Aircraft Establishment with fly-by-wire flight controls[8] for the right-seat pilot. This was test-flown, with the left-seat pilot having conventional flight controls for safety reasons, and with the capability for him to override and turn off the fly-by-wire system.[citation needed] It flew in April 1972."

The black box will tell.

Perhaps the pilot should have treated that airplane like the 65-year-old jet that it was.

I've witnessed two fatal air show crashes. Those are burned into my mind forever and were the most horrible things I've seen. I'll never go to an air show again. I said I wouldn't after the first time, didn't think it could ever happen twice. It did and I'm done.

Of all the places he could have slammed into the ground, he picks the motorway with bumper to bumper stopped traffic.

I ran the thing through my head over and over, why did he stall the left wing. Why was it not a loop but more like a hammer head. None of it made sense. Bothered me all day.


So I looked again and found it. Only appears for a split second @30 & 31 seconds.

Right wing is leaking, the trail is long...

flaps all look good, wondering if it is a leading edge issue, the plane had flight control issues fixed with leading edge surfaces.

More to this then meets the eye.




If someone wants to enhance the pic, the trail has a lot more definition then the one I posted. Almost shows up better in lower definition.

What, they are the Etiquette Police now? This is not a criminal matter.

This is what bothersome about 'authorities', wasting their credibility, and challenging others goodwill, on baseless rationales. This puts people in a conflict, it's a confrontation with what you know is your innocence and someone who is going to accuse you of a crime.

Post the videos all over the bloddy place! Seeing them helps people to see we live in a real world where death is a possibility at any time, and or crippling injury, and all is not sugar and spice and love and light. There are monsters, and men die at their jobs, heroically, with a good heart serving others.
