Earlier news said he was being dealt with by Police but the news now is a little more grim! http://www.iomtoday.co.im/news/isle...helicopter-crash-near-the-tt-course-1-7296842
Yeh not good. It is really blustery here, so surprised a helicopter was flying at all. That is not to pin blame, just saying. And all racing and practice cancelled today due to high winds and not being able to fly air med. Should say Nobles Hospital is also full of tourists, so not many beds left. Some seriously appalling riding and dangerous manoeuvres. Fast I can take, but dangerous and not just to themselves I can't understand.
Sounds like the TT this year is having a tough time with the storms on Monday then racing / practice schedule seriously impacted. Tempted to go over Fri evening to Sunday one weekend with the fast boat from Liverpool but will avoid the main events, much lighter traffic.
Seriously considering the Manx next year when it is a lot quieter. Supposed to be colder too, but it's friggin Baltic tonight anyway. Hence we are in our beds already. Marshalling at Sarah's Cottage tomorrow for Superbike race.
