You should post more information than that or don't post at all. Poor form.

Just pulled this form the Argus web site

Incident details

A27 Westbound entry slip road closed at A283 (Shoreham Flyover). No access onto the westbound A27, because of the ongoing investigations into the Shoreham Airshow jet crash. The main A27 westbound is down to one lane.

Just for the record, Bloom & Barber visited the site this afternoon and left a Brighton scarf. Difficult not to like Bloom, just so 'normal' kudos to them both.......

Rumours is the found another body in the trees

Please think before you post on this thread. There are many people on this forum who have been closely affected by this tragedy. Sorry if I sound as if I am telling you off but as you may have guessed I have not been in the best of moods since this tragedy happened.

That has been there since the road reopened? Those lanes have not been open since the accident?

Correct you can only go Westbound via the Holmbush Roundabout you cannot join at the flyover which is a good idea to prevent more queues as only one lane open west bound at present.

I am 99% sure that a 'rumour' is exactly what it is. "Very unlikely, no family reporting, and no smell at scene..." is what I was just told by someone that is *very* close to the situation...

I tend to deal in facts. It would be great if other people did too, especially in circumstances such as these.

Pilot started his manoeuvre 200 metres above ground level when his licence stipulated 500 metres minimum according to initial report. :nono:

No faults with the aircraft seemingly.

One hesitates to pre-empt decisions still some way off but the pilot would seem to be, potentially at least, criminally culpable.

This statement is misleading if not just plain WRONG!

Preliminaryreport was not clear enough for me. And it wouldn't be for the full inquest with a jury.

Keep speculation to yourself!
It is not speculation to report fact.
The report by the Air Accident Investigation Branch (AAIB) may be preliminary but is hardly uninformed and will form a central element of any determination subsequently made by the inquest among others.
Understand knee jerk criticism. In a percect world all would be blameless but where there is fault there have to be repercussions

Even if you're an aviation expert, I really don't think speculating, or just giving an opinion on who is at fault is really appropriate on a public forum while an inquiry is taking place.
