Red Arrows death
AN RAF engineer has died after a Red Arrows jet crashed in a “big fireball” at the air force’s fighter pilot training ground in north Wales.
The pilot of the Hawk jet survived the accident at RAF Valley in Anglesey yesterday and is now in hospital, authorities said. Witnesses reported seeing someone eject from the aircraft with a parachute before it smashed into the ground then “burned bright orange”. It is understood the Red Arrows aircrew had been doing routine training.
