Pilot Dies After Plane Crashes at French Airshow

The Fouga Magister aircraft went down during a performance near Le Lavandou, leading to the cancellation of the event.

The 65-year-old pilot's body was recovered quickly after the crash.
The plane narrowly missed boats in the harbor before hitting the sea.
The Fouga Magister was a post-WWII trainer jet with no ejection seat.
The crash occurred just before a demonstration by the French Air Force's elite team.
A recent collision of Rafale fighter jets in France resulted in two pilot deaths.
