Скачать или смотреть Moment when French plane crashed into Mediterranean Sea; eyewitness captures it on cam

A pilot died on Friday (August 16) after the Fouga Magister jet which he was flying during an airshow in Lavandou, southern France, crashed into the Mediterranean sea, said French authorities. Eyewitness footage captured the moment of the crash and Reuters was able to verify the location and date of the video by corroborating footage and additional information from source. "The body of the pilot has been recovered," said the local authority responsible for the Var region in southern France. French authorities added that an inquiry was underway to examine what caused the accident. The airshow was part of a commemoration of the 80th anniversary of the Allied forces' D-Day landings in Provence. The airshow had also involved the French Air Force's 'Patrouille de France' aerobatics team, which decided to cancel its demonstration at the event in light of the accident. The crash comes just two days after two French military jets collided in eastern France, killing two military personnel and leaving a sole survivor.
