A plane plunged into the stands at an air race event in Reno in what an official described as a "mass casualty situation."

It wasn't immediately known how many people were killed. But video of the crash showed a horrific scene of bodies and wreckage at the front of the stands.

Mike Draper, a spokesman for the air races, told The Associated Press that Jimmy Leeward was the pilot of the P-51 Mustang that crashed into the box seat area at the front of the grandstand about 4:30 p.m. He said he did not have any information on the number of injured.

The National Championship Air Races draws thousands of people every year in September to watch various military and civilian planes race.

It was infact pilot error, he was warned that his trim tabs may not be able to take the full G-forces of some of the stunts, later on trim tab falls off resulting in a steep climb putting more than 10Gs of force and causing him to black out and not be able to recover, AME's go through lots of training and prep before they are able to sign off aircrafts for flight so dont assume because a piece of an aircraft breaks or falls off it is the engineers fault

Thank you for your excellent, riveting coverage.

With your deep insight, professional attitude, and unbaised observations, I'd say your are a natural for news.
