Sad loss of a plane, but great to hear that the crew are OK.
I laugh in the face of danger - then I hide until it goes away!
Yes the main thing is the crew are safe.
Two more chaps qualify for the Martin-Baker Ejection Tie Club & two more lives saved.

Orph. Glad the crew is OK. Additionally, no one on the ground got smacked by a piece of wreckage. Ruins your whole day.
Yeah, thought I'd add the link when I saw them, so many different types & nations involved.Originally Posted by Guntruck
