Thunderbirds and Blue Angels Teams Both Lost Birds Today
« on: June 02, 2016, 05:20:31 PM »
Both teams lost planes in crashes today in seperate incidents.  The Thunderbird pilot is fine.  The Blue Angel pilot reportedly did not eject.

At least a couple of the photos of the Blue Angel crash look like it was in a field pretty close to some houses.  Latest official word is the pilot couldn't eject in time, but I'm wondering if he rode it in to keep it in the field.

That is all. *expletive deleted*ck you all, eat *expletive deleted*it, and die in a fire. I have considered writing here a long parting section dedicated to each poster, but I have decided, at length, against it. *expletive deleted*ck you all and Hail Satan.
