Your mom didn't hug you enough, did she? I'm so sorry!
 
Mistakes happen but no need to ban air shows.......just put more safety measures in place to minimize this....
The way the smaller plane clipped the bomber, one of the pilots fucked up

At a guess, the P-63 pilot never saw the bomber. The King Cobra has a long nose, set-back cockpit, and therefore a very large blind spot ahead and below. (If it was a taildragger, it would be impossible to land.)

Yes, I'm the emotionally stunted one because I don't want to see senseless deaths from dangerous entertainment. You're the stable genius because you see people die while putting on a "show" and say "That's a shame. What's on TV?"

So...do you also want to ban car racing, motorcycle racing, motocross, skydiving, and mountain climbing?
 
Synthaholic said:
This is just your lack of logic and critical thinking skills talking. If there were stunt car demonstrations frequently around the country where there were often horrible car crashes resulting in death, I would call for them to be banned too. Notice that I didn't say that we should ban airplanes or air travel. You should really grow a brain when you get a minute.

They do. They are called races. Going to ban them too?

I bet the real reason you hate them is because it’s a display of patriotism. Oh and you probably think it causes global warming. You idiots are pretty predictable.
 
Fact:

Before it became the Commemorative Air Force they were called the Confederate Air Force for decades. I attended many of their air shows back then. Fun patriotic times.
 
Wow, you're really striking out with this goody-two-shoes activism, aren't you. Why don't you move to a country where they have already have banned air shows? I'm sure it won't be the only thing banned there, but hey if that's what you like you're free to go!

The wingnuts and the Trumpanzees are bitterly clinging to this thread so that they can avoid their humiliating performance in the midterms.

Actually it's good to keep your hysteria on display for everyone to see.
When I first clicked on this thread I expected to see some sarcastic comment about the topic, but I quickly realized that you were dead serious!
Too fucking funny!

  • June 15 – A pilot was killed flying an aerobatic display in a Yakovlev Yak-52 during the Płocki Piknik Lotniczy in Płock, Poland. The aircraft appeared to enter a flat spin. Late in the spin the aircraft appears to enter a more nose-down flight attitude, a common procedure used by pilots to exit a flat spin. Unfortunately, the aircraft was too low to recover and impacted the Wisła river, killing the single crewmember on board.[9]
  • February 19 – Two BAE Systems Hawk Mk. 132 aircraft of the Surya Kiran Aerobatic Team collided midair during a rehearsal for the Aero India 2019 near the Yelahanka Air Force Station.

Early in the take-off run, number 4 engine ingested a large bird, one of a flock of Wedgetail Eagles which had been milling around the airport. The plane suffered a major compressor stall, but was able to safely abort the take-off with emergency braking and thrust reversers on the undamaged engines.[12]

The pilot and a passenger, Technical Sgt. Kenneth Cordova, were trapped in the aircraft for over an hour. Cordova was uninjured. The investigation revealed excessive air speed coupled with landing too far down a wet runway caused the jet to leave the airstrip and flip over. Rain on the canopy windscreen and failure to follow proper braking procedures during the landing contributed to the accident.

  • June 2 – Capt. Jeff "Kooch" Kuss of the Blue Angels died just after takeoff while performing the Split-S maneuver in his F/A-18 Hornet during a practice run for The Great Tennessee Air Show in Smyrna, Tennessee. The Navy investigation found that Capt. Kuss performed the maneuver at too low of an altitude while failing to retard the throttle out of afterburner, causing him to fall too fast and recover at too low of an altitude. Capt. Kuss ejected, but his parachute was immediately engulfed in flames, causing him to fall to his death. Kuss' body was recovered multiple yards away from the crash site. The cause of death was blunt force trauma to the head. The investigation also cites weather and pilot fatigue as additional causes to the crash.[32]
