OMG!!!!!! :( :( :( :shock: Reminds me of the footage of the cowboy @ Fairchild several years ago in the B-52
Unfortunately, I've been to that movie a few times in 45 years.

Very sad. And yes, Inspector there seems to be more than too many relations to the B-52 accident. Hindsight's easy, but we were told the USAF (and USAF training) has learned the critical lessons from that accident.

Watching the video, you can see the very instant when all the Newtonian principles go out the window. I've seen virtually the same thing with bush planes, airshow acts, and helos, you observe long enough and you get that 'creepy' sixth sense feeling because you know what's next-a very sad thing to witness

Golly what an awful site. Totally reminds me of the same 'horses a$$' Holland who flew the B-52 into the ground at Fairfchild in 1994.

Airshowitis: The temptation to stretch the envelope for a airshow.

Many years ago an airshow boss said at a briefing, "Don't get airshowitis"
