Really a sad day....
These guys fly a 9 plane formation, STAYING TOGETHER IN A CHANGING FORMATION for 13 minutes at the show opening. Because the Tudor can fly lower and slower than the fighters, the show is "center stage" for the audience. Rather than speed & power, it is like a delicate ballet that can bring tears to the eyes of veteran pilots, the ones who can appreciate the extreme difficulty of what they are doing, and the stress of being on the outside of a rolling NINE plane formation..... They will continue on after this , just like all the teams must do. Condolences to them & their families.
