I think it was after that crash we could no longer go out next to the taxiways when the aircraft were performing.
The year before, saw some amazing things by the Blue Angels and previous year by the Thunderbirds (or vice-versa) up good and close.
Both engines seem to be coming apart, there.
The old lawn dart maneuver.
I still remember the full LiveLeak version. Once was plenty.
Flying close to the ground is just sooo dangerous!
No time to recover, no time to think of what you should do.
Altitude is your friend.
Only thing I ever flew were tiny Cessnas, a 140 and a 150...and not very much as it was too expensive for me at the time.
I would like to have an ultralight but it seems foolhardy to fly a plane that weighs less than you do..lol
I just wanted to say THANK YOU for providing threads that are a good diversion from the politic talk of the day.
