  • i can't make head nor tail of this,hope photography is not your proffession,you'll starve

  • man that was a nice plane too

  • keep the damn camera still!

  • Vespa

  • Its sad to have lost a pilot and a mustang

  • crap i was there not a good story. the pilots flew too close to each other. if anyone saw a asian kid wearing a red polo shirt that was about 4"3, it was me.

  • so very true

  • i remember this:( not a very good day for anyone at AirVenture

  • worste bit of camera work I think Ive ever seen....

  • I was there on the strip when saw it. I was one of the first-respnders to the crash.  And i feel very sorry for the family of the pilot that died. It reminds me of my experience at Ramstein....

  • You saw the horror of Ramstein too? :( bad news..

  • whoa that wuda been crazy if I got to c it actually happen like that. I bet it was scary

  • i remember that crash. I was there to and I saw it happen. I was standing right on the flight line when it happned.

  • Yea I was about 300-500 feet to the north of where the planes first touched, it was nuts.

  • Comment removed

  • just wish it was Tom Cruise in his P51 instead.........LMAO

  • lol agreed

  • lol some of this footage is gna be on discovery channels destroyed in seconds ther doing this crash 4 it

  • haha *burps* "oh that sounds beautiful!" nice

  • mom the camera work was not very good

  • I forgot, nice camera work.

  • Thanks for sharing this video. It was unfortunate that such an inspiring show ended in tragedy.

  • me?

  • Why would you even post this pathetic useless POS? Huge fail!

  • YOU CRASHED A P-51 MUSTANG, why don't you just burn down the statue of liberty while you're at it!

  • it was an accident smartone...

  • Where are the P51'S? All I saw were people in reflective vests and atv's and scooters.

    Looks like you could have jerked and shook the camera harder.

  • heres a hint for ur problem...OPEN UR EYES!!

  • I remember seeing this last year. One guy actually died. It kind of pissed me off though but it also made me sad. It pissed me off because they cancelled the airshow and I only went there for one day. But still sad because he died.

  • You are an idiot.

  • Oh and why am I an idiot? I said I feel bad because the guy died. I was still mad because they cancelled the airshow though. I only came there for that Friday. I am sure you would have felt the same way. Whatever, loser, I don't need you to tell me how to act, I live in the United States and I use its freedoms to the full extent. I went this year and there were no problems.

  • Because the airshow must be cancelled after someone died. It is respectful, and reverent. You can't have the show go on after someone died, it like "Aww to bad... He died..." and then seeing the later end of the show and saying "What a great show". Besides, there are other airshows. I'm glad there wasn't a problem last year. I went to the Great New England Air Show last September, and there was a mishap with the Shockwave (the jet truck), but the driver was unharmed, and the show did go on.

  • Yea they cancelled the F-22's which made me mad cuz that was my last day ther.

  • @JIMAXair I was there when it happened. Who cares if you didnt get to see the raptors. May the pilot of the P-51 RIP.

  • Except as soon as they got the runways clear and everything cleaned up they continued the air show.

  • the guy that died was only twentey one his mom was in our camper when we saw him crash and she was just balling here eyes out he was my uncle i miss him so much he would always give me plane rides

  • What the hell are you talkng about Berry Beck was nto 21!!! try 40.

  • You mean jerry not berry. and rebelient is a dumbass.

  • are you talking about this crash or a different one??

  • Seems like every year a plane crashes there..

  • well there is over 10'000 planes there

  • What i know is that the front plane hit the ground while the other rear plane was still airborne and after the first guy hit the ground his plane started to slow down a great deal from drag and brakes and so the other rear guy was about to land and the other guy was going slower and then they collided.

  • Is there a thorough accident report somewhere? That was a wierd formation when landing. Did the rear pilot not see the front guy or was it an intentional formation landing. Very odd if you consider the caliber of pilots wielding those craft. If it was an intentional formation landing there must have been a malfunction in the rear craft, no?

  • I ment both planes were gone...I knew only 1 person died

  • I think both were gone...it was a very sad day.

  • they both didnt die one died

  • Precious Metal was one of a few P-51A'a left. A rare "razor back." It was a truly terrible day for everyone involved. Our camp was right across the street from the Warbird's camp. The silence from the normally-rowdy campground was so sad.

    One side note, towards the end of the video, the people keeping people out of the way for emergency vehicles were my folks. Custom Aircraft Volunteers and Aviation Explorers. I was just off to the right of the shot.

  • The P-51A was HAND-BUILT by the builder/pilot, Gerry Beck. It was a brand-new aircraft, not a WW2 original.

    Sorry, just wanted to point that out.

  • damn that must suck like hell that the guy died

    but did any of the P-51 Mustangs survive?

  • You sur said it:(

  • holy crap,i remember being there. what a horrible day. that poor guy died + both of those historic planes were destroyed. a sad day in aviation

  • RIP

  • did the pilot survived?

  • the one with the nose on the ground did, the other guy blew up

  • ah ok 2bad :S

  • I noticed that if you look above the planes that r parked, u can see the smoke from the dead guys plane(beggining of video)
