How would you like to provide a short commentary on each crash video, for
inclusion on our website? Perhaps a paragraph or two, with your expert
opinion on what happened

Regarding your video of the "tragic" mid-air crash between the two
Migs, I was there, it was RIAT Fairford '93. Both pilots walked away.
Literally. One walked back to the commentary box and apologised to
the crowd.

I have a half hour programme recorded about this incident with a lot of
comment from the pilots involved. If I can get hold of an analogue TV
adaptor for my PC, I'll digitise it and send it over.

Basically the no.2 says it was his fault. The leader went into cloud at
the top of a loop while the no.2 was flying in close formation. The no.2
pulled over harder to avoid going into cloud. He was now doing a
loop of a smaller dimension than the leader. Rather than knock it
off, he continued. The leader came around and not seeing the no.2,
decided to break up and out, the standard formation break. Not sure
I've got that 100% right but it's something similar. There was a no.3
guy on the ground in a transport plane and made a radio call to separate
the aircraft but happened to transmit the same time as someone else on
frequency.
