Phil Perry Posted April 23, 2015 Posted April 23, 2015 A two time British advanced aerobatic champion was killed yesterday when his Edge 360 spun into the ground narrowly missing a gaggle of aviation press reporters and photographers at Old Buckenham Airfield in Norfolk. David Jenkins, pictured below,. was in his fifties, and had joined the 2 aircraft Wildcat Aerobatic Team, a pair of Pitts Special aircraft, at the same airfield in 2013. He was carrying out a solo practice display for a forthcoming air show when the accident occured. It is very sad when any pilot loses his life in an accidentl. but when the pilot is exceptionally talented, it makes it more difficult to understand. . . . .the A.A.I.B. are investigating as of this morning ( 23 April )
