Seven people have been killed today
after a plane crashed onto a busy road during the Shoreham Airshow. The Second World War Hawker Hunter
fighter jet was performing a loop when it smashed into the A27 and burst into a
fireball.
The pilot who crashed today has been
described as 'gifted'.
Andy Hill is believed to have been a
British Airways captain and a top RAF pilot.
Friend David Wildridge, who flew at
the airshow today, told the Mid Sussex Times: "He is a highly experience
pilot, well-known and well-loved.
"He is highly professional and
it is totally unusual for this too happen.
"He was a Harrier pilot in the
air force. They are the top RAF pilots - the best of the best."
