Ex-Russell Group Spitfire IX MK912 damaged, pilot OK (link)

Apparently suffered loss of power shortly after takeoff; plane is pretty beat up but the pilot got away with arm and shoulder banged up. Not ideal, but I'm sure the plane will eventually be repaired.

A Folland Gnat also crashed fatally yesterday in the UK- very sad loss.
