AN INVESTIGATION into a plane crash which killed two men continues.

Passenger Peter Geoffrey Stacey, 67 and from Shaftesbury, and pilot Christopher Harvey Nicholls, 64 and from Farnham, died when a Tiger Moth came down near the Compton Abbas Airfield last year.

Police and paramedics were called at 9.28am on August 26 2017 after the biplane crash-landed.

Both men died at the scene.

The Air Accident Investigation Branch (AAIB), a branch of the Department for Transport, began an examination of the circumstances. Earlier this week, a spokesperson said: "The incident is still under investigation.

"Our investigations typically take around one year."

No information will be released until the investigation is complete, the spokesperson said.
