Stuart FL Air Show Practice Crash

Essentially zed info from the report, beyond that "an incident" has occurred.
 
God I hate news sites.. that link is unnavigable.. Instead of showing the article I want to see, it brings me to a video about a seven year old girl who was shot, then a dozen other links to videos

Geez. I don't know if I read the number correctly, but N10VD is an OV-1 Mohawk.

My heart stopped because we have a Mohawk going to the show from KLNA but that would be a static display, no performance. This was the Dr. that performs aerobatics. Still hits hard. I never met the doc but folks I work with knew him well. R.I.P.
 
Ugh...RIP.

Here's a pic of the aircraft:

Gotta pass that along to my wife. She has some right seat time in these including rides while ferrying them. She would also fly the Museum Owner's T-34 down to Osh while the owner would fly the Mohawk. Actually I think the owner flew the very Mohawk he flew in Vietnam (had like 3 or 4 at the museum). I think they are cool. I fit but can't imagine I'd fit through the top on ejection. Man those blade tips are creepy close to the canopy.
