The twin-engine private helicopter was stricken in low cloud and freezing temperatures above the construction site of the 51-storey Vauxhall Tower just before 8am on Wednesday, smashing into the top of the building's main crane and shearing off the jib before spiralling on to Nine Elms Lane and bursting into flames. The pilot, Captain Pete Barnes, died at the scene along with Matthew Wood, 39, from Sutton in south London.
