VIDEO: Red Arrow jet could have been downed by bird strike.

A catastrophic bird strike could have brought down the Red Arrow jet at the Bournemouth Air Festival in England. The plane, piloted by Flight Lieutenant Jon Egging, crashed following the Red Arrows display at the festival in southern England. The pilot steered the plane away from houses in a nearby village, but he failed to eject and was killed.
