Spitfire crash near RAF Coningsby.
Crashed in a field near the base at 1-20 this afternoon.Sky news just reported that a statement from the RAF said the pilot has sadly died.

RIP
The aircraft appears to be belly down with the engine where it should be, must have arrived on a very flat approach. Last edited by KWIL; 26th May 2024 at 08:55.. Reason: spelling |

The nearby bungalow looks to have had a close call,seems to have finished up at the edgeof the garden.Must have been a serious malfunction being so close the base.
