Airlander 10: Footage of aircraft after it crashed in airfield

Footage has emerged of the Airlander 10 after it crashed in Bedfordshire this morning.

The video from 'We Love the Cardington Sheds' was taken when the aircraft broke free from moorings in Cardington airfield.

From the footage, it would appear that there is quite a large rip in the side.

Hybrid Air Vehicles Ltd said the Airlander was not flying at the time, but a female member of staff was injured and taken to hospital as a precaution.

Experts are continuing to assess the damage.
