One dead, two probably dead.

Sad day for military aviation.

Latest last night was they still hadnt found the crew of the 2nd tornado.
1 of the 2 that were recovered died in hospital. So looking like 3 of them are dead. Just hope they find the wreckage or bodies of the 2nd for the sake of the family

Wreckage found and crew named, both pilots killed, 1 WSO serious but stable in hospital.

The RAF know exactly what's happened already.

I doubt they do, crash investigations don't just happen overnight.

Agree. The last invest at our place took nearly 3 years.

So much involved, especially seeing how one airframe is at the bottom of the Moray Firth. The investigation team don't just say that'll do after a few days.
