He ejected BEFORE the show? Screw the pooch much, eh?
Actually it happened at his home...
Bummer but I’m glad the guy is OK.

Maybe it was a warmup or they did some maintenance on the plane and he did a quick test-flight, who knows?
Premature ejectionation?
EZAKTLY!
Maybe. I’m sure somehow it’s President Trump’s fault.
Something must have gone wrong with the plane.
I live in the Atlanta area and we have FINALLY gotten some rain. A nice slow drizzle.
Oddly written article.
LOL, hey it happens sometimes, LOL.
I assume the aircraft missed the Atlanta Urinal Constipation building?
“Something must have been wrong with the plane”
No shit? Ya think?
I like the way they minimize this. The pilot ejected from an airplane, so the show was canceled.
The disposition of the aircraft and whatever was at the point at which it came in contact with the ground is a minor detail.
