Narrow escape from SAAF C-130 Hercules nose dive leaves several injured.

A tool box crushed two vertebrae in the back of a female captain and broke the ankle of a loadmaster when the Hercules C-130 cargo plane in which they were flying went into a screaming, out-of-control nose dive at a military show at Roodewal shooting range on Thursday last week.

The pilots, who cannot be identified as they are not allowed to speak to the media, managed to pull the plane out of the dive only 200 feet (60 metres) above the ground to avoid a horror crash in front of a large crowd.
