I just saw what looks to be a BD5 crash in Perth on the early news.

I have just found out it was Peter Gilbertson, from Perth, Mark would have
meet him while there.
There is a copy of an email from Perth Aussie KR member.
Hi Phil
Yes it was Peter. He had just taken off behind a Varieze and Gordon's BD5
but was not climbing. He appeared to decide to abort prior t
Photo from my web page of Peter's ( Aussie KR2 builder's) BD5 I took last
year on a visit to Perth

Just found this online news article which has amazing photos lifted from
video footage. You can see how close Peter ended up to the onlookers who no
doubt saved him more serious injuries.

I spent a couple of hours talking to Peter at Serpentine. He and his hangar
mate (also a BD5) put on quite a show for us later in the day. They took
off and flew an aerobatic show for us, entirely in formation just a few feet
apart. Here's a shot of him on takeoff, which was pretty quick, at
Holy. Those guys are heroes.
