Sad news today that Vicki Cruse, 2007 US Aerobatic Champion, was killed when her Edge 540 crashed during a practice day during the World Aerobatic Championships being held at Silverstone motor racing circuit in the UK.

Another bit of news from today; if anyone had wondered where the Sea Vixen had gone this week, the new pilot, Lt Cdr Matt Whitfield RN has suffered a stroke at the age of 37. Hopefully a full recovery will follow.
