The pilot in question is Elion Krugman-Kadi a former Israeli Fighter pilot
and Faculty Flight Instructor at Embry Riddle Aeronautical University.
Skill level was high as was his competency with the l-39. However in the
never ending battle between hunks of aluminum traveling at many hundreds
of miles per hour and the ground traveling at 0 miles per hour, the ground
has yet to lose. If anyone is interested I will post the missing man
flight from this afternoon's show in honor of Elion.

Back in the early 90's when ICAS and the FAA implimented their ACE
aerobatic certification program, each pilot was supposed to be tested by
a more knowledgeable, experienced performer before being given
accredidation to perform at a given aerobatic level in airshows.
So far, this program has been a disappointment in that it has failed to
adequately screen performers.
