G-TEAC was practicing moves for an airshow as part of the Harvard Formation Team. The plane in front had an engine missfire, so G-TEAC moved to avoid, putting it into an inverted spin. The plane recovered and was about 20ft from the ground when it pulled up to avoid trees. Upon doing so, the plane then crashed into a field, ejecting 1 occupant and killing the rear passenger. wings and engine were torn off, and the plane burst into flames. The forward cockpit area was ripped back 180 degrees and was left along side the plane.
