A hang-glider pilot died after crashing into the Sussex Downs.
Brian Gaylor, 51, of Goodhall Street, Harlesden, north-west London, survived the impact, on Friday, at about 3.30pm.
But he later died from his injuries at St Richard's Hospital, Chichester.
A woman in her 50s called for help when she discovered the man near the wreckage of the hang-glider at South Harting, west of Chichester.
Police have appealed for witnesses and for the woman who found Mr Gaylor to contact them on 0845 6070999.
