Hindustan Aeronautics IJT Prototype lost during Test

An intermediate jet trainer apparently crashed during flight test on the 28th of April.  Both pilots got out, but not without injuries.  The problem appears to have occured at low altitude, since the pilots landed relatively close to the wreckage.  More details as they come in.
