it's not exactly the explosion sound in the foreground but nevertheless.

Re: Airshow Plane Crashes into Cars on A27 at Shoreham, West Sussex
The pilot (Andy Hill) in pic.  Mr Hill joined the RAF in 1985 after leaving university, gaining his wings two years later. Later in his career, he returned to train RAF pilots at a training centre in North Yorkshire. After he left the RAF, he became a civilian pilot, flying Airbus and Boeing aeroplanes and eventually becoming an Airbus captain. David Wildridge, who had flown with the Tiger Nine display team earlier in the day at the airshow, told the Telegraph that as a former Harrier jet pilot, Mr Hill was the "best of the best." Three victims of the crash have been named - Matt Jones, a 24-year-old personal trainer, and Worthing United FC footballers Jacob Schilt and Matthew Grimstone, were all killed in the accident.  ·  ·  · |

Re: Airshow Plane Crashes into Cars on A27 at Shoreham, West Sussex
I wonder if he adjusted for the difference in altitude between the accident site and the last place he/the plane flew? I read about a similar "loop-the-loop" accident at an airshow where that was the case. I think the lowest limit to try the stunt is 2000 feet in the US now. |

Re: Airshow Plane Crashes into Cars on A27 at Shoreham, West Sussex
well shoreham, as it's name suggests, is on the shore...so it's pretty much sea level.....unless he flew over a big hole or holland i don't think that would've been an issue..... personally i think he's a little mad doing loops in a plane that was built in 1955......but i suppose they can handle it or he wouldn't have been doing it |
