Light aircraft crashes during acrobatics

A light aircraft pilot crashes into the ground with a sickening thud after asking a pal to film a video of him flying which he hoped would help him sell it.

The accident occurred at the Kudinovo airfield in the Maloyaroslavetsky District of the western Russian region of Kaluga Oblast where a light aircraft is seen crashing into the ground.

The unnamed pilot - who had earlier been trying to demonstrate on camera what the plane was capable of - was killed instantly according to a statement from the Investigative Department of the Investigative Committee of the Russian Federation for the Kaluga Region.
