This happened on some Airshow in Asia. The Airplane last both wings in
midair and consequently crashed. Maybe it did some aerobatic loops

Everybody wants to be Bob Hoover.




.................and what they forget is that the secret to being Bob Hoover
is NOT pulling g's.


At least not pulling too many g's. :-) Bob pulls just enough, but not
too much.

I'm wondering if the sudden change in G forces abruptly after the wings
snapped may have knocked out the pilots so that they didn't have to see
the ground coming uo to smight them...
