Anyone who has ever seen Jimmy perform at an airshow knows what type of
entertainer and pilot he was (I think he should have been an

No way. Franklin took what should have been relatively safe
precision aerobatic flying and turned it into a high risk
series of stupid stunts. Franklin took needless risks, flew
unsafe aircraft, and was a sloppy pilot who did not pre-plan
much of anything that he did. It was only a matter of time
before he killed himself. It is too bad that he had to kill
so many other people in the process, including his father.
