RE: 2 death 4 wounded in model airplane crash
OK, here is the deal. It was a Composite-ARF Pitts S-10, with a 3W engine. The pilot is a highly qualified German pilot, of the caliber of the pilot who put the 117 in a few weeks ago in California. I have his name and have seen videos of him flying at different shows. He is a superb pilot but posting his name here would serve no purpose. It appears that a local pop radio station was broadcasting on the same frequency that he was flying on that lead to the interference and crash.
The two deaths were an elderly couple, husband and wife. Both died instantly and it was gruesome.
What a tragedy for everyone.
