  • stupid ass fucking pilot fuck thunderbirds all about blue angels

  • This was not #6, it was #5, lead solo. After this winter training crash, Maj. John Switzer was recalled to the team. Maj Switzer had spent the previous 2 seasons as the team narrator, and served as lead solo for the '94 season to maintain rotational continuity.

  • its always 6 that crashes cause it 666 duh!!

  • Never heard about this crash. No matter what demo team has a crash it always seems to be plane #6 that buys the farm. What's up with that?

  • @Tampaslice It seems, being plane #6 is like beaming down to the planet, on star trek, wearing a red shirt.

  • @71259mark No kidding!

  • @Tampaslice I think #6 is the newest member of the team, therefor the least experienced.

  • Flew it right into the ground.

  • Captain Lewis survived the crash.

  • Survived thecrash and flew again. I lived in the same building as him at Ramstein. He was a quarterback at UGA when Hershell Walker was there. Crazy accident,

  • no that was the lead solo's split S off takeoff your thinking of, they had a previous altitude height of 2500 hundred feet split S, but since the crash they changed the height to 3500 feet.

  • Was this also a case of infamous "I set the altimeter at wrong altitude" ?

  • Ahhh... Should have flown an F-18!!! J/K nice vid.

  • Ouch!. Old pilot's saying.

    "When I run out of air, the ground is always there". It's a 'heads up' thing.

  • sure is

  • Loss of SA

  • @twinstu50

    remember... it's not the fall that kills you, it's that sudden stop at the end that does... :)

  • What are you like some French faggot or something? Show respect for the USA you scum-sucking piece of shit.

  • right, because acting like that you deserve so much respect.

  • OMG i thought it was a paper plane LOLZ....OMGBBQPWNDERSAUCERS!!!

  • is the pilots ok??

  • Neither. The F-16 is made in Fort Worth, TX.

  • AKA the 'Inadvertant tailslide maneuver'.
