Sad news. I've just been told the CAF He 111 (actually a Spanish CASA 2111) crashed & was completely destroyed. http://www.confederateairforce.org/news/2003/nr-03-0710.html

Both crew members were killed. Cry
Fortunately there were no other casualties. I think this was the only airworthy example of its type in the world.
