There's a video going around of the crash. Two ejections go off but they chute's didn't fully open. One of them landed on a rooftop.
CANADA KICKS arse !!!!

Long Live the Commonwealth !!!

I saw that video.  Hopefully everyone will be okay. Scary stuff.
Thanks!

That's very sad. :(

There'll be all sorts of 'Why did it happen' theories of course.
Kit's Rule 1 ) Any aircraft can be improved by fitting longer wings, and/or a longer fuselage
Kit's Rule 2) The backstory can always be changed to suit the model

...and I'm not a closeted 'Take That' fan, I'm a REAL fan! :)

Saw it on BBC News this morning. Very sad
Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.

The Snowbirds were doing a 'Perk Up the Population' demo tour around Canada this last couple of weeks, they were in Red Deer the day before but I missed the display. Very sad to see that on the News yesterday --- and another female service member from Halifax gone ---
