Pilot killed when F-16 jet crashes during preparations for a Polish air show

Description:

A Polish Air Force pilot was killed when his F-16 fighter jet crashed during preparations for the Radom Air Show, prompting cancellation of the event. The aircraft, from the 31st Tactical Air Base near Poznan, went down during a practice flight, erupting in flames with no ejection attempt seen. No bystanders were injured. Defence Minister Władysław Kosiniak-Kamysz and NATO allies paid tribute to the pilot, a member of the elite “Tiger Demo” unit, Al-Jazeera has reported. Poland, which has relied on U.S.-made F-16s since 2003, is upgrading its fleet amid heightened defence spending following Russia’s war in Ukraine. read more: 👍 Like this video to honor the fallen Polish Air Force pilot and raise awareness of aviation safety. 💬 Comment below—share your thoughts and tributes for the pilot and Poland’s Air Force. 🔗 Share this video to inform others about the tragedy and its impact on the Radom Air Show. 💰 Want to support the channel?
