So sad to see. :( Then looking at that forum, someone linked a previous accident that was almost identical to this accident. Very sad. My thoughts go out to all involved.

Chris,
Completely agree, a sad thing for sure just proves the old adage, ASSUME NOTHING!!

Very sad news. Beyond the immediate tragedy, this will again make it more difficult to have a full airshow season in Germany. Due to the infamous Ramstein accident, there is a strong anti-airshow issue there, making anything between fly ins and international trade-driven events very hard to put on.

And similar accidents could have similar effects in any country. It could happen 'here'. The primary rule of airshows is don't kill or injure the public.
