Both? Transit flight then?
BBC reporting that eyewitnesses saw two people ejecting.

2 ejections apparently. Doesnt mean 2 people in it like.

Following the aircraft incident at RAF Valley earlier this afternoon, if you were an eyewitness, please send any photographs of the incident to [email protected]. Any images may help with an investigation. Please DO NOT share these online. Please be sensitive, thank you.
BBC report has changed now to two people confirmed as on board and eyewitnesses saw one eject.

I think he was their chief engineer although he did fly with them as and when

Two seaters usually have an engineer in the back. No command eject on Hawks, not sure.
Edit - that's right on a runway because the board with the orange circle is to indicate the cable across it.
I have heard what might have happened but can't,say too much, but it seems unlikely given where it came down.

Aren't Hawk's trainers but designed to be flown by either seat, so could have been giving someone a tour?

Hopefully just bullshit but from what I've read elsewhere it doesn't seem like good news.

Sounds like a phishing scam, you'd think the RAF would have their own domain.
