The Sknyliv Air Show Disaster - what happened here on 27th July 2002 was a catastrophe that almost beggars belief. A Soviet era SU-27 twin engine jet came out of an acrobatic maneuver too low, lost control and ploughed into the watching crowds.... It is the worst air show disaster on record, a tragedy that should never have happened.
