Photo Comment

The aircraft is seen returning and making a safe landing at Flying Legends despite having lost a substantial section of the wing as can be seen here. During the airshow finale it collided with a P-51 D-FBBD (the former G-HAEC) which crashed and was destroyed with the pilot making a rapid exit and escaping uninjured despite a low altitude parachute descent
