Suicide

I agree with you. What else could it be?

[Honest Nigerian]

What else? Arkancide comes to mind.

What else could it be?

It is very likely not suicide. It is much more likely:

1) GLOC with the P-51 pilot

2) Loss of situational awareness by the P-51 pilot losing visual on the B-17 during the pursuit curve.

3) A medical emergency with the P-51 pilot rendering him unable to control the plane.

In any case it is a tragedy on the personal level for families of all involved and the loss of a national treasure. We have lost two B-17s in recent years. Not that many flyables left.

Unless you are familiar with airshows your opinion is totally out of line.
