Hi All-
Does anyone have more info on this new article I saw on the net?

The pilot of a restored Hawker Sea Fury ISS-25 was fatally injured Tuesday when the airplane went down near Stephens County Airport in Breckenridge, TX.

The pilot had recently purchased the airplane, according to a news release from the Texas State Police.

The Sea Fury went down in a wooded area near Stephens County Airport, and pilot was declared dead at the scene. The Texas State Police said in the news release that pilot/owner "was training with a newly purchased aircraft. The pilot experienced a problem with handling causing the plane to nose dive and crash into a heavily wooded area.”
