Damn shame to see that happen to such a nice plane... hope they find the other pilot...

what was the cause?

Well from the link name itself I get that it's a presumed midair collision! The investigation will have to determine that for certain.

I wonder if they were out of solenzara AB. I am based in Bastia and they often came here for ILS and TnG. A few days ago I was in "formation" in traffic pattern with a section of Rafales..It feels strange that I might have seen them ,, and now..
