Went to the Pt Mugu Airshow today. You've probably already heard.
A diamond formation of two F-4's and two F-14's did a flyby before landing. On the brake, the leftmost F-4's left engine sputtered and shot flames out the back. Then it crashed. The back seater ejected, but didn't do it in time.
I had a bad feeling about it when I saw the F-4's taxi onto the runway. Planes that far out of regular service should be flown as little as possible, IMO.
It's one of those things you see on "Caught on Camera" or "RealTV", but you never expect to witness.
The two men will be missed.
