Very Sad   Sad

Military Aviation in itself is somewhat dangerous.   IMHO, air shows are events where we push the envelope.    Trying to do difficult and entertaining maneuvers in front  of a crowd and low enough so the folks on the ground can see them.   Very dangerous.

Fort Walton Beach, Florida I'm a simple man, I like pretty, dark haired woman and breakfast food.

That's horrible. 

However, I love air shows.  I once saw an F22 dance on it's tale.  Awesome sight to see.

I can't help about the shape I'm in
I can't sing, I ain't pretty and my legs are thin
But don't ask me what I think of you
I might not give the answer that you want me to

An interesting read about this crash:  How did Shoreham crash pilot 'run out of sky'?

With some very timely photos.
