The West Midlands Ambulance Service rushed to the site of the crash on the Worcestershire-Gloucestershire border but unfortunately nothing could be done to save the two passengers on board.

In a statement, the ambulance service said: “Two people have died after a light aircraft crash.

“The single engine aircraft came down at around 12.45pm today in a field near Overbury, Tewkesbury.

“Due to the foggy conditions at the time, the Midlands Air Ambulance from Strensham, with a doctor and critical care paramedic on board, had landed a couple of miles from the crash scene and were picked up by a paramedic officer in a car and were taken to the scene.

I know the pilot and I have many, many hours in G-WAVS for the company involved. This is not good.
