Although she was taken too early, I think she lived more than most of us and she sure looked like she had fun doing what she did. God bless your sole Amanda.
So very sad that she is gone. A beautiful young woman....and a tragic end. We watched them at the Great Minnesota Air Show the summer before last...awesome! I was there with my 10 year old daughter, and we watched every video of them on youtube in the weeks before the show. My daughter watched the vids over and over.....she thought that Amanda was so cool and she wanted to meet her so badly. After their performance we tracked them down, and Jada met her superhero...in the flesh.
@mrretka She got an autographed poster (that she still has on her wall) ,hugs from Amanda and Kyle,T-shirt, and "pirate coins" from thier treasure chest. She was so everwhelmed...that she cried after she met them. I thought it was pretty cool too. When I told Jada that Amanda had crashed....and didn't make it out..she was crushed. Her hero was gone. I still shed a tear over it...to this day. I know Amanda will always live in Jada's heart . I kinda predicted her life at 30,but she went early
I cried when I watched this. You provide beauty to enrich lives, and the beauty of the shots of Amanda on the wing framed by the clouds and sky is amazing. I'm so sorry for your loss, and ours. If there's an afterlife, she'll be on your wing and in your arms again. Love from an avid enthusiast and his family.
oh wow ;( My wife and I followed Kyle and Amanda on facebook following Brownsville, our hearts go out to the Younkin and Franklin familys, and especially to you Kyle.
Great video. I only got to see the Younkin's and Franklin's perform 1 time and they were the highlight of the show. 2 weeks later Bobby and Jimmy collided. I will never forget their performance.
The Franklin's and the Younkin's have had a rough few years. 2005, Bobby, and Jimmy collided, 2007 Jim Leroy, and now Amanda. They do what they do for the fans. But it costs.

wow, the ending of this vid is beautiful but sad. i knew they had an accident but i didnt know she had passed away until a friend told me last night. rip amanda
I knew about the accident...but until I saw this video, I didn't realize she had died from her injuries. You have created a wonderful tribute to her. Thank you! God bless her and her family.
Such an amazing video and tribute to one of the greatest wing walkers of all time! Amanda was so beautiful and graceful! She displayed such wonderful talent and entertainment! She will definitely be missed but never forgotten. Amanda, thank you so much for sharing your life with the rest of us! Kyle, I hope you and the 4-legged "kids" are doing ok and hope to see you fly again! The music in this video is nice, too! Wonderful job and thank you for putting together this video!
