What happened
The outlets' own sentences, most widely reported first. Hover one for who reported it.
Officials said the bodies of the pilots were located during a rescue operation, hampered initially by a fire at Tanagra airbase near Athens
The crash of the twin-seat Phantom F4 jet took place during a low-altitude manoeuvre.
Eleven water-dropping planes and helicopters helped 85 firefighters in an effort to contain the blaze, which remained at some distance from the viewing area at Athens Flying Week, an annual air show.
Video footage of the crash showed a plume of smoke rising from the point of the impact followed by a larger, second explosion that happened nearby as the plane broke apart.
