An RAF Red Arrows pilot died when his plane crashed following a display at the Bournemouth Air Festival in Dorset. Flt Lt Jon Egging, 33, from Rutland, was killed when his Hawk T1 aircraft - Red 4 - crashed about 1km south east of Bournemouth Airport at 13:50 BST.

Witnesses report that his Egging's aircraft was much lower that the formation as they finished a display.

A real tragedy for the finest display team I've ever seen in action RIP to the pilot.

Sadly at that altitude you don't get much time to react should something go wrong, even less time to pull the string on the Martin-Baker
