Both pilots of a Greek Air Force firefighting aircraft have been killed, after their aircraft crashed during a mission over the island of Evia. RIP

There is a video of the incident, it looks to be a CL-215 involved, the Greek Air Force operate both the CL-215 and CL-415 water bombers.

The aircraft clipped a tree/bush which sheared a wing float off.
The aircraft continued to roll to the right in a steep bank, and appeared to stall, with no room to recover. A terrible tragedy. :(
