Was the second person a pilot or local dignitary? These practice sessions are often used for promotional purposes.

I always thought the F-16 was called Fighting Falcon, not Thunderbird.

Heavy fog? It has been pouring rain all day in Dayton, so I doubt there was any fog. I love the MSM just making up their “facts”.

Also the passenger was safely removed a long time ago, about a half hour after the pilot. Both were in the hospital in good condition. Thepilot was reported to have some lacerations on his legs.

The F-16 is the Falcon, not the Thunderbird.

The time has come to end these vain/dangerous, totally unnecessary, exhibitions.
Air shows are fine, but these “stunt” acts are not worth the risks.
