Berlin Express lost its canopy in flight yesterday during the display. It shattered for some unknown reason and damaged the tail section. It's down safe and sound. This pic was posted on the UK Airshow Review by TKK 140 at the moment it shattered....pieces everywhere and it looks like a large piece about to hit the horizontal! In the second pic, you can see the clear blown Malcolm Hood and the thick leading edge it has.
Just glad no one was hurt and the plane landed safely….Good thing this didn't happen during the flight over!!!!! Would have been a cold flight!
In this video, you can see the shards blow out….enlarge the video to full screen with the broken square in the lower right corner of the small black screen.
