Shoreham air crash pilot Andrew Hill has flying bid rejected

In a statement, a CAA spokesperson said: “Following a public hearing on a challenge by Andrew Hill to a UK CAA proposal to revoke his pilot and flight radio telephony licences, the decision panel has confirmed that proposal and Andrew Hill’s licences will now formally be revoked.”

Mr Hill has been unable to fly in the UK since 2015 following the incident.

The CAA spokesperson added: “The thoughts of everyone at the UK Civil Aviation Authority remain with those affected by the tragic crash.”

Mr Hill was charged with 11 counts of manslaughter by gross negligence, but was found not guilty after a trial in March 2019.

In December 2022, a coroner ruled that his significant errors and “poor” flying of the Hawker Hunter plane led to the 11 men being unlawfully killed.
