This kind of thing happens.

There are a lot of us out here who are and were connected with display
flying who "talk" to each other via email all the time. Many of us in
this loop are still active. Some are air show people; some are
military; some are race pilots some are Red Bull pilots. We're in no
way "official", but we communicate all the time. Official or not, we
have a deep reach into official channels in several countries and much
of what we discuss safety wise ends up implemented in some way into
the way things are done.
My own personal feelings about air show safety have evolved somewhat
from my active days as a pilot. The safety issues are very real and
are deserving of constant attention by the display community.
I for one don't have all the answers. I keep active and at least have
a small voice in the matter.
Anyway, it keeps me hopping sometimes :-))


Well, the hopping bit is good anyway!
