RAF Hawk crashes at Cranwell - No fatalities

An RAF Hawk has crashed into a car park but both crew got out OK. Have also seen it reported on other forums that it was a Red Arrows aircraft.

My wings are like a shield of steel.

Reported as Red 11 but not a Red Arrows jet.

Both crew ejected following a reported undercart collapse.

The BBC’s article is quite amusing…. ‘some damage to the aircraft...’ Looks like a bit more than a paint job to me… attached wings might be nice.

BBC article Noel Chapman of Lincolnshire Fire and Rescue Service said: "The aircraft itself came to a standstill in the car park, adjacent to air traffic control. "There's some damage to the aircraft and there was also some damage to three vehicles that were in the car park.

Wetter than an Otter’s pocket
