Most deadliest airshow accident to date...happened a couple years ago. And yes, I dont plan on going to any Ukranian airshows in the future.

Ok, was there a thread that Bon replied about positing stuff of this nature? I might be wrong, but LD you found it yourself! LOL

What Bon said, was in regards to the other clips showing the aftermath of that crash, previously posted in the other thread. They were both tasteless and no one should need to see or be reminded of the grim results. Not in our forums at least! The clip Redeye posted doesn't really show the tragedy and grave results of this crash where so many people lost their lives.

Wow is not the word I'd choose... Don't want to re-visit the horrible sights and discussion about this again, but you can follow the links yourself to the previous discussion about this accident (minus the videos that were removed from our forums)... More than 100 people lost their lives (!) within only the few seconds seen in the video still up there!
