I've been watching the sketchy details appear throughout the later afternoon, Hope the pilot is on the road to recovery! The airframe burned and the pilot was taken to a hospital that specializes in the treatment of burns, I hate to put 2 and 2 together! :(

Seen a couple of pictures on Twitter.
first thoughts obviously with the pilot. does look like a Bronco. any idea if its the same one that was at Fairford? Or where the Bronco that left Fairford went?
Was only listening to the pilot on that new Dan O'Hagan podcast today too. :(

Someone just posted this on Facebook.

Just seen this on Twitter - thought fellow aviation friends would be pleased to see this! "Latest info is as follows 'Tony is alive, talking and moving all limbs not too burnt but knocked head"


Make of it what you will, I hope it's true, but I can't find where the info came from so I cam't give a reference for it.
