DefenceHQ: It is with sadness that the MOD must confirm the death of Flight Lieutenant Jon Egging of the RAF Aerobatics Team (The Red Arrows).

Very sad day, from reports it appears he stayed in aircraft to avoid houses and thus did not have enough time to eject, Sad

Crashed about a mile and a half from my house! Red Arrows are now grounded pending the investigation. There was a total news blackout at the airshow as the team's wives and family were on the beach watching it! Sad If you go through life with your head in the sand....all people will see is an ar5e!!

Treat every day as if it is your last....one day you will be right!!
