I don't really know. They brought the plane back after that late
routine, and the windshield was split .
Could have been stress, overspeed, combination of the two or a freak
occurance.
Either way, they were drilling holes in the windshield and were tying it
back together with something like a lace.

I was at the performer party immediately afterwards.
Jimmy cracked the windshield durring that performance.
I bet he sold a lot of airplanes that day.
How did he crack the windshield?
Jimmy came to our Aviation Explorer's base camp, and gave a presentation /
question-answer session. Everyone really enjoyed him. But as someone said,
he really liked to live life on the edge.
I saw the first season of the jet powered biplane. All I could do (while
watching his show) was stand there with a big stupid grin on my face. It
was just so funny, strange, weird, and just not right, but I loved it!
Both will be missed.
