Chances are even if someone at that level is watching this video....they probably aren't panicking and immediately thinking about the need for regulation (since that's already in place). I also doubt the are going right to Defcon 1 panic mode "what if" thinking. Show me a regulation that can absolutely preclude accidents 100% of the time, and I'll show you a regulation that grounds all aircraft. Wonder what the same group of folks were thinking when the Blue Angles pilot crashed, and recently was blamed for the crash. Those Navy pilots have been crashing a lot this year...don't they follow safety protocols? Point is of course, accidents happen.

But yours is a good hypothetical question, but why not ask this of someone who deals with this type of scenario in the jet events he promotes. Safety is an ongoing point of discussion for you, why not ask Tiano about it. He answered your questions about Muncies money and the MA magazine.

Can you show me an airshow that doesn't have an aircraft pointed at the crowd at some point?

There's no mystery edit...you saw what we all saw...an aircraft heading right down the runway that started a roll, and the stab came off, then the plane came apart. The parts fell past the runway, opposite of where the spectators were. Well, come to think of it, I didn't see any spectators, so perhaps it wasn't a successful event and folks were not really in any danger. Did you listen to the video though, and the comments about the pilot and the aircraft needing specific licenses/certifications? Do you have a specific or realistic way to stop these type of accidents 100% of the time?
