From the comment section about the Thunderbird pilot who survived the crash:

"The guy who crashed the jet gets to meet the guy who crashed the economy. Awesome duo!"

I admit it, I laughed.

Looks like it went down in a residential area right after take off. He probably road it into the ground to avoid homes and people.

Kind of ironic that two would pile up on the same day. Sucks that the one guy lost his life. That job has its perks, but definitely has its risks....:sadangel:
