Photos of Oshkosh crash in progress

[Just Plane Noise[_2_]]

I do not like the idea of re-posting them here, but if you want to see
photos of the Mustangs tangling at Oshkosh, go here
http://www.thenorthwestern.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20070728/OSH0101/707280376/1987
and click on Fatal Warbird Crash under Multimedia Photo Galleries on
the right side and down a bit. The pictures provide some support for
eyewitness descriptions: Precious Metal's propeller got into the tail
of Stang, shoving Stang onto its nose, while Precious metal flipped
over and exploded. The two were attempting to land in formation.

I would like to know more about the pilots. Often people with enough money
to own a plane like this don't have enough time to fly to get and stay
proficient..

You will find that both pilots were very proficient, and flew together a
lot. They were very good friends and were in a movie made a few months
back... Thunder Over Reno. (Not out yet)

If you know more about the pilot, particularly the one that was trailing, I
would be very interested.

Thanks, eye witnesses are at best unreliable. It will be interesting to
see video assuming the NTSB allows it to be released in our lifetime. Of
course if the lawyers get involved you can forget about seeing it. I
appears that the rear pilot (Beck) would have been at fault if there wasn't
anything else that hasn't come to light.

What a shame. But why the formation landing? What's the point? From the
video I watched, Precious Metal was clearly higher and faster than Stang.

What a moron. If you can't see his pictures it's your own fault.

Ignore 'em. They have a religious problem with YENC. Many have said that
they're gonna killfile those who post in YENC... which, as I've said before,
seems like a plan to me. Go for it, boys. Killfile away.

How about simply a moment of silence for the familes of the deceased and
the pilots too?

Tim, that's the really sad part in all this...
People are so wrapped up in the great yEnc debates that we are forgetting
the horrible tragedy that has unfolded at two great air shows in the past 72
hours... The families of both should be in our thoughts and here we are
arguing over something as trivial as a posting method. It is a given that
we as aviation fans have lost two of our greatest performers and both will
be terrible missed. However our loss is nothing compared to what the
families must be going thru.
