Wasn't there just a Mig-23 crash at an airshow?   Both pilots ejected and the plane crashed into a parking lot?

I know that happened, just not where.

That happened in Belleville, Michigan. (my home state.)

Be interesting to know what caused the crash. Given that the plane looked to be going pretty slow I guess engine failure of some kind.

No pilot. They ejected. Plane had no choice.  :D
