This is marked as Cam 1 and the original footage I have already uploaded is Cam 2. Cam 1 also includes a still photograph which my friend took as the aircraft came out of the bottom of the loop and is included as I believe it shows a previously unseen detailed aspect of the aircrafts right wing tank and flap position etc whilst immediately approaching or over the A27. Tragically, Canfield Aviation's Hawker Hunter T7 WV372 crashed on the A27 at Shoreham Airport whilst pulling out of a loop during its display at Shoreham Airshow this afternoon at 1.25pm. This film shows the aircraft doing the loop manoeuvre immediately before the crash and the impact fireball, following a high speed run in along the crowd line from the south west. My deep sympathy, thoughts and prayers for the 11 people killed in this tragic event, their families and friends, and also for the pilot, who has life threatening injuries, and for the 14 other people injured; may they all fully recover. Thank you to West Sussex Fire and Rescue Service, South East Coast Ambulance Service, Sussex Police, HM Coastguard, Surrey & Sussex Air Ambulance , other services, organisations and bystanders who responded professionally to this disastrous event. The saddest of days. Please note that this footage is not 'monetised' on YouTube or any other source. If you see adverts on the clip whilst viewing these are the responsibility of YouTube alone!
