I have recently read 2 postings on this forum regarding the incident at Duxford, it appears that both of them have been removed without explanation. I have seen the clip from local tv news on youtube, It mentions the motorway closure but nothing else. can anyone tell me what has happened? thanks

A turbine powered model ( I think an F-15) crashed into a corn field just outside the airfield. The resulting fire burned several acres of crop before it was able to be extinguished. Smoke drifting across the motorway led to it being closed for an hour or so.
