A 55-year-old Warwickshire man is to go on trial charged with killing a hunt supporter who died after being struck by the rotor blades of a gyrocopter.
Bryan Griffiths, whose trial will take place at Birmingham Crown Court, denies the manslaughter of Warwickshire Hunt member Trevor Morse.
The defendant, of Wiltshire Close, Bedworth, is alleged to have killed Mr Morse unlawfully at Long Marston airfield, near Stratford-upon-Avon, on March 9 last year.
Mr Morse, a committee member at the hunt, was pronounced dead at the scene of the incident after suffering severe head injuries.
