Loss of P51D
« on: February 05, 2016, 06:34:04 PM »
News reports out of Phoenix AZ indicate a P51D (Reporter stated it was a F51D) was observed to be flying erratically and then dove straight into the ground.  Estimated alt was said to be about 3000 feet when first observed.  Pilot is reported to not have survived.  Aircraft was not really recognizable from video of crash site I saw.  Incident was between 3 and 4 pm local time.

Big Beautiful Doll went in a couple years ago thanks to a retard A-1 driver who didn't know how to do a tactical pitch out.

The point remains--it doesn't go in GENERAL DISCUSSION. 

Also, he must agree because my post on the topic is still safe in the O'Club.
