I could have gone flying today, different place though - still scary, I feel for their families

[Saracenman]

thankfully, the glider pilot involved survived apparently

Sobering reminder of the dangers

its been a dreadful year for aviation accidents...

[Mackrick]

A sad day all round.

Hate news like this. Somebody not keeping a good enough look out probably. Wonder if the glider pilot escaped injury.

[Mayfly]

a reminder to all I think that good weather brings out more flyers,

I know light a/c around was always a concern to DT when flying 558, & he says when he was on BBMF you could see on radar the light a/c turn to intercept the Lancaster as soon as she was identfied...
