It was the skyraider.
Or Was it a problem with the P-51 not turning sharp enough??

The BBC have some video here:http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england...shire-14101641
I was just leaving the carpark when the collision happened and turned round to see the Skyraider upside down and with bits falling off before it disappeared from view behind a hangar. I thought he had gone in for certain, but he managed to recover and land OK. The P-51 took a hell of a whack, but seemed to recover a bit, allowing the pilot chance to bail out.

Damn iPhone won't let me watch the video.
But I do see s pic and I was expecting the p-51 to have more visible damage but it looks fine compared to the skyraider...

Some pics of the P-51 pilot bailing out here: http://forum.keypublishing.com/showt...=110391&page=3 (scroll down a bit)
It looks like the Skyraider wing hit the underside of the fuselage between the wing and tailplane (nearer the wing) and put a huge dent in it, perhaps damaging the control runs to the elevator and rudder. The BBC video shows the P-51 being almost knocked out of control by the force of the impact. The pilot's parachute deployed with only seconds to spare.
