Isn't it interesting how a post about a plane crash, a WWII museum piece at that, denegrates into a discussion about "hotties"?

I take partial blame for having added to that. It sure seems dificult to stay on topic in most posts, doesn't it?

Your mileage may vary though.

Some would argue that this is the point where the discussion PROGRESSED from geek talk.

Orgon and Motana are near Nevda and Wyomg.

Did pretty much the same thing myself in a pony in  AH last night, dweeb!

Glad to see he's OK though. He was amazingly calm talking to the reporter.  But I'll be he's sore all over this morning based on my experience crashing motorbikes. It looks like it cartwheeled or at least ground looped with vigour.

Have no doubt it will be rebuilt. All you need these days, is the the data plate. There are big arguments as to what consitutes a restoration or a re-build.

That P51 is hardly scratched in comparsion.

Just a note about this crash, the pilot and passenger died (thus the yellow tarp) after hitting a tree on final approach on April 8 2000 at Goodwood airport in Sussex UK (same place with the racetrack).  Reports are he had taken cold medicine and that might have caused him to be drowsy.
