That sucks. I'm a big fan of stunt pilots, but sometimes, even the best make mistakes.

Like the old saying, "at least he died, doing what he loved"!

Thoughts and prayers.

It definitely sucks.

But, if you think at least he died doing what he obviously loved doing, he finished way ahead of alot of us.

That sucks. What's weird is, I have always had nightmares about planes crashing by my house. I grew up about ten miles or so from where they have those air shows.

don't like seeing that shit with me getting more involved in flying here lately...

like my buddies dad who has been a pilot for 30+ years always said...

there are bold pilots & there are old pilots...but not many old bold pilots.....

Also two P-51 Mustangs crashed at the EAA Airventure in Oshkosh. One pilot died there as well. :mad:

Man, that's sad. I had wanted to go to the Dayton Air Show on Saturday, but we planned to go boating instead. I'm glad we didn't go, I don't think I could have handled watching that. Apparently it was a bad weekend for flying, there were several crashes at different air shows a 2 news helicopters in Arizona collided in mid-air following a car chase, I think all 4 people were killed there. It is all very sad.
