Two men killed in light aircraft crash in Derbyshire named


Two men who died in a light aircraft crash at a race track in Derbyshire have been named.

Emergency services were called to Darley Moor race track at about 11:30 BST on Tuesday.

Derbyshire Police said pilot Edward Browne, 66, and passenger James Litchfield, 64, both died at the scene of the crash.

The Air Accidents Investigation Branch (AAIB) launched an investigation following the crash.

A flying restriction order, signed on behalf of the transport secretary, was also in place earlier in the week, which stated that no aircraft was to fly below 1,600ft above mean sea level in the area.

On Thursday, police said investigations were ongoing, and that officers were appealing to hear from anyone who witnessed what happened.
