Pilot failed to manoeuvre, investigators conclude Hurricane crash in Cheb
Last year’s crash of a historic Hawker Hurricane fighter aircraft at the Cheb Air Show was caused by a mishandled manoeuvre by a 58-year-old pilot who died after hitting the ground. According to investigators, the pilot did not have sufficient flying height to perform the manoeuvre. The Czech News Agency has learned this from the final report published on the website of the Institute for the Professional Investigation of the Causes of Air Accidents (ÚZPLN).
