Title: North Weald crash: Plane in 'disorientating' spin
Post by: mhm on December 18, 2012, 06:23:21 AM
Two men died when a light aircraft crashed during a "disorientating manoeuvre" in aerobatic training, an inquest has heard.

Instructor Simon Hulme, 33, and student Spencer Bennett, 43, were killed when the Yak 52 crashed into a lake at Langford, Essex, on 28 April.

It was unclear which pilot was in control when it plummeted towards the ground in an inverted spin.
