Two pilots who ejected from jet before crash 'expected to make full recovery'

The RAF says two pilots who ejected from a Hawk T2 just moments before a crash near Pencarnisiog on Anglesey are expected to make a full recovery. The aircraft had been operating out of RAF Valley on Wednesday when it plummeted to the ground in the nearby area. The RAF treated the pilots for minor injuries and said on Thursday they were “doing well,” in good spirits, and expected to fully recover. The RAF paused Hawk operations as a precaution while an investigation is ongoing. A video shared online appeared to show both pilots ejecting as the jet nosedived and crashed, producing a plume of smoke and fire.
