RE: c117 crash
I have compassion for the loss of life,accidents do happen , but this still comes down to "Pilot in Command " and he alone . I doubt even with the claxon horn going off the co pilot and observer even had a chance to do anything.
IMO. This accident has little in common with the Buff that went in at Fairchild AFB.Sure both were getting ready for an airshow but thats were it ends ,at Fairchild the PIC was "hot dogging" ,as He was retiring in the next few days .
