This rediculous low budget annual CNE airshow is a waste of time and

Agreed. Time for it to stop. Write David Miller.


Truly the most dangerous waste of time over the top of Toronto.
Since the early 90s I've petitioned for an end to this chronic
aviation masturbation - the CNE will do anything for ticket sales,
nevermind that dozens of fliers have been killed over the years in
this "spectacle" of carnage.


The WORST! *7* men - in a Nimrod 1995 - at the CNE AIRSHOW.

Narrative:

The Inquiry detenmined that the captain made an error of judgement in
modifying one of the display manoeuvres to the extent that he stalled the
aircraft at a height and attitude from which recovery was impossible. The
Inquiry considered that contributory factors could have included
deficiencies in the flight deck crew's training and in the method of
supervision which could have allowed the captain to develop an unsafe
technique without full appreciation of the consequences.

Note: this occured 1/2 mile from the downtown core of Toronto over Lake
Ontario God willing.
