A MEMORIAL service has been held at Biggin Hill Airport to remember the five people killed in the Farnborough plane crash.

Two pilots and three passengers died when a Cessna Citation jet crashed into the side of a house in Romney Close on March 30.

About 80 people attended yesterday's service at the airport's St George's chapel which was led by an RAF Northolt chaplain.

A short flying display by six light aircraft and a Spitfire, followed the service.

Biggin Hill Airport director, Peter Lonergan, said: "It was a fitting tribute to those who died. We were very pleased to hold the service.

"It was to celebrate their lives of all the people who died but obviously it was a sad occasion.

He added: "We invited everybody back to the airport and had a fly-by.

"Six aircraft from the airport and a Spitfire did a short display which lifted everybody's spirits."

Pilots Mike Roberts, 63, and Michael Chapman, 57, and passengers David Leslie, 54, 63-year-old Richard Lloyd, and Christopher Allarton, 25, were killed when the plane went down.
