    Very sad, I guess he was doing what he loved though.

    Sad indeed. I had the luxury of seeing them when they performed at Wakestock in Pwehelli a couple of years ago. Luckily we were just walking to the site as they started so their performance was right over ours heads, It was fantastic to watch them so close up

    I have fond memories of seeing the Red Arrows many times around Bournemouth as my nan lived very close to the seafront down there. Amazing guys - thoughts go out to his family and friends.
