Seven people have died after a plane crashed into a number of vehicles at an airshow in Shoreham, West Sussex.
Eyewitness Stephen Jones spoke to BBC News: “The aeroplane involved is a Hawker Hunter T mark 7. And he’d just begun his flying display.
“He’d gone up into a loop and as he was coming out of the loop I just thought, you’re too low, you’re too low, pull up.
“And he flew straight into the ground either on or very close to the A27, which runs past the airport”.
