I hate to sound negative, but two fatal crashes in a year or so..
involving the same company.. and the same scenario (aircraft, mode of
operation). I will be surprised if Texas Air Aces resumes operations.
What I would be REALLY surprised to hear is if the SECOND fatal was a
result of 1) an unmodified (in accordance with the AD) bird or 2) being
operated outside of its envelope.
Condolences are clearly in order.. but so are some very probing questions.

Another T-34 crashed today here in Houston killing the IP and

Eye witness heard a report and saw a wing that had separated. They had
a similar accident (wing separation) just a year ago that killed the
owner of Company.
Not sure if this bird had the FAA wing mod or not.
My condolences to the families of the pilots.
