Very sad :(
I'm glad no one on the ground was hurt though. But still sad :( R.I.P.

Always sad to read of such things. :(
In memory of a very dear friend - Mike Pearson

Very fond memories of Robbie Gilvary - DTs 1st Vulcan Captain who taught DT all he knew.

Not quite right....

Three police officers were burned (one badly) and five other people treated for the effects of smoke inhalation.
