BBMF aircraft will not participate in D-Day 80th anniversary commemorations due to a Spitfire crash that killed Squadron Leader Mark Long.

Battle of Britain Memorial Flight (BBMF) aircraft will not participate in D-Day 80th anniversary commemorations following the tragic Spitfire crash that killed Squadron Leader Mark Long. BBMF flying will only resume when it is safe and appropriate to do so, as flight safety is the RAF's primary concern. The cause of the crash remains unknown and is under investigation by the Defence Air Investigation Branch.
