Commentscrashed 24.06.87 when the pilot had to bunt and roll to port to avoid a collision when acting as an aggressor with two other Jaguars while flying up the Wye Valley three miles SE of Builth Wells, Powys. He then entered the slipstream of one of the other Jaguars and had to manoeuvre hard to avoid a collision with the ground. Control was lost but the pilot - Flight Lieutenant Ian David Hill - ejected too late and was killed when the aircraft crashed.
