Another warbird lost

Cool video. I was at those races (funny, thought it was in 95, not
94) and remember the crash well. Everybody in the crowd was yelling
"GET OUT!" as the Corsair was burning. When it went in, it was just
like a movie special effect. I think it impacted in the old GM
proving grounds, so no damage to anything on the ground, thank
goodness.

They also had MD-500 helicopter races that year. Three of them,
started from line-abreast hover. Funny as hell!

Too bad the races didn't come back to Phoenix after that.

As far as losing a warbird, it's like shooting down retired jets as
targets - beats being turned into pots and pans or gathering dust in
some dinky museum.
