All the naysaying news reporters/commentators are calling for an end to air shows because they're so dangerous. Next accident at the Indy 500, they'll be after car racing. They're asking the "tough" gotcha questions of people who are devastated. Watched a news conference with reporters asking the most stupid questions. Two hours after the accident, they're asking how many members of the pilot's family were in attendance. And - what kind of insurance policy did the pilot have?

Had the opportunity to see all the new stealthies at an air show at Edwards AFB back in '95 when they were new. Got a crick in my neck watching them. Lots of cool pictures that day.
