OV-10 down in the UK

Ouch! Is that the one used by Aerosoft to model their Bronco...?

Edit: apparently it was G-BZGK, which was indeed the original FsX Bronco as released by Aerosoft: http://www.airliners.net/photo/North-American-Rockwell/2131948/&sid=26917fe5863704655fc08a6a29603998 and http://www.aerosoft.de/shop-rd/bilder/screenshots/fsx/broncox/BRO64.jpg

According to an eyewitness:

I was unfortunate to witness it today! He was performing a climb roll inverted then attempted to pull out of the loop but run out of height! The crews at Kemble where attending which I will add the Kemble fire crew where very professional and the fire was put out very quick.

Who cares which serial the plane was, the important thing is the health of the pilot who only days before flew displays at RIAT at Fairford. Flight sim is virtual and doesn't matter, this is a real life tragedy.

He's definitely lucky to be alive that's for sure.
 
says a lot for the saftey of the airframe if he could open the canopy and walk away from that mess himself! :icon_eek:
