Hey all,

Sometme in the late 80's or early 90's I was at an airshow in Fl,
can't even remember which airport, anyway, a big name in the world of
warbirds overshot the runway in his Skyraider, the bird flipped
breaking his neck and killing him.
all I had was this 35mm Yashica non-slr camera. I got a shot if the
plane on its back, thats about it. Can anybody provide any information
of this incident? Maybe some pictures?
Wish I had more to give the group, thanks for the posts.

Are you thinking of Charlie Hilliard and his SeaFury at Oshkosh?

I think that was at SnF. Same type of accident.
