At Arsenal v Liverpool? I suppose with the further fatalities anticipated by Sussex Police, this has become a national disaster.

Familiarity of the area is a surprisingly powerful tie. I've only travelled through Shoreham a couple of times since 1979 but I'm sure I wouldn't have been nearly as affected if the disaster had occurred at the Eastbourne show. I think it's because the scene of Shoreham Airport is so ingrained...

It's Jacob. Come on people, think before you type. After all the regretted postings on this thread, you'd think people would realize how sensitive even a misspelling of a victim's name could be. To get the name wrong completely because you haven't bothered to check it is just crass...

This really is getting too close to NSC. It's quite poignant that, in turn, there will inevitably be a fund-raising match for the pair. Midfielder Jacob Schilt is in the stripes whilst Matt Grimstone was a goalkeeper..

You don't seem to do post reading either. You were active on the thread before Westdene posted his predicament, in fact your post #118 appeared immediately after it. Actually I agreed with you about speculation surrounding the pilot, but thought Wesdene's criticism was measured. But you, you...

It's hardly unique. Brian Brown died crashing a Hurricane whilst also performing a stunt at the same show in 2007. Maybe he should be explaining why he was trying to loop the loop over a dual carriageway

It was only after reading the recent posts disputing the significance of the wedding day that it occurred to me that Green Cross Code Man may well have meant that it's doubly tragic when he posted Heaping tragedy on tragedy. If that is the case then please accept my apologies, GXCM.

You'd think he'd have been on confirming his kids/ex-wife were OK. Mind you, StonehamPark is online but he's not made such a confirmation either; are you able to do so, Stoneham? This is not the time nor place for jokes.

Obviously he was one of the critical. Now he's not.

I It was reported as having crashed on a slip road, making the nearer carriageway the far more dangerous one. The 4 second video (now taken down) from ZoeBeth on Twitter would confirm this. BTW, she tweeted this a few minutes ago: Ew my hair stinks of...

That must mean eight have now perished, if the Worthing Hospital employee's figures were correct. Did it occur on/next to the west-bound or east-bound carriageway? If the latter, then we must brace ourselves for the possibility of NSC bereavements.

The pilot must have ejected (probably horizontally); there's no way he could have survived in the cockpit.

If you look at the extreme bottom right of that video, it looks like a car has driven straight into the crash.

Could a mod insert Shoreham into the thread title? I only opened it because I had some time to kill. Just about everything apart from the actual crash is going to be unsubstantiated this early. I don't see what is wrong with speculation.
