@agcatdriver I agree and I'm sorry, I don't know what I was thinking with that stupid and disrespectful comment. I claim pure stupidity on my part and have removed the post.

@omegatails91 I totally forgot about this, I don't know what I was thinking with the response at that time. Dumb, mean and not even funny. I claim complete stupidity on my part at that time.

@ben1976howard I'm fully aware of that my friend...I'm a pilot also. I was just in agreement with this guy's comment that integrating a parachute into an aircraft can increase survival. Europe is starting to do this yet the USA has been (as usual) slow to react!
In Belgium a few years back I heard of a case where parachute was deployed at around 800 ft. and even though it hadn't fully opened by the time it impacted the ground it still saved 2 lives.

@ryanspeed Most airshows are performed at altitudes where parachutes would not have time to deploy. Besides, pilots need to do everything in the power to attempt to ditch their plane away from the audience and not focus on their own survival. Airshow crashes are somewhat rare, not planned events and held at altitude not conducive to this suggestion.

@brunodts He did NOT exceed speed. He did stunt maneuvers in a passenger aircraft and got approval by calling it an experimental.

The pilot did die, it was his mistake he went down. He did have kids, and they had kids. I am one of those kids. Most of us have highly productive jobs and function just fine within American society. While it may have been his mistake, it does not mean the reast of his offspring are going to be born morons. The bottom line to joke or laugh at anothers demise is a pretty shitty thing to do.

@TheTruthHurtsYup Hey dickhead, show some fucking respect. The pilot's wife and child were there and witnessed this first hand. There's nothing funny about it at all. Fucking jerkoff!!
