Several Twitter updates report about the crash of a HAF (Greece) F-16. Photos show a large black smoke plume.

Looks very bad ....
Don't know when this has been recorded, but no emergency vehicles or such activity can be seen.
Alpha Jet and perhaps AMX damaged ... And 10+ excellent soldiers lost ...
Guess this makes this session end sooner ...

RTVE.es meldt:

Diez muertos y 13 heridos al estrellarse un F-16 griego en la base aérea de Albacete

En Google vertaalt dit als:

Tien doden en 13 gewonden bij de crash van een F-16 Griekse luchtmachtbasis in Albacete

Not good, not good at all. Rumour has it that today was also the TLP spottersday ? Anyone has confirmation on this ?

Sad regards,
Iwan

Small correction, the fire is behind the Tornado. Some say many Italian casualties due to crash in/near the Italian planes on the flightline at TLP.
Video images show also Lakenheath F-15E near the fire.

Very sad day for TLP. RIP.
