Flying with angels now IMHO.

Very sad indeed. I am a private pilot single engine land and seaplane ratings. Some aerobatic training mainly for making normal flight safer. If I have to die in an accident, I hope it is alone at the controls of an airplane.

Oh, that is SO not cool to see this today. Last night I watched a documentary on PBS about the OshKosh airshow last year where the two P-51's crashed and the one pilot died.

I didn't even know what I was watching until they showed the two planes come in for a landing and everything went horribly wrong. All I know is it was all pretty cool. Very in depth edification about the pyrotechnic show setup. I was getting all excited to see everything go off according to the choreographed plans. Those two P-51's were on short final approach in formation at the numbers, when my eyes bugged out of my head: I knew what was going to happen next!

That's because we discussed that event HERE! And lots of pix were posted HERE! What a bummer to see this posted HERE TODAY.

Condolences to the bereaved for the loss of their loved one.
