    What the heck is going on this year?! It would seem that one vintage plane (replica or otherwise) after the next has crashed one way or another. At least all of the pilots survived; that's the important thing. This trend sure doesn't bode well for my trip to the Old Rhinebeck Aerodrome airshow on the 17th!

    Maybe someone forgot to shuffle the damage deck

    The Dr1 is a bit twitchy landing in windy conditions.

    Well at least it does not appear to have been too badly damaged.
    Duxford must have forgotten to hand out the "Rabbits feet" before the Show.

    The Duxford air shows have up to now had a very good safety record for a long time, now two in one show.
    Run for your life - there are stupid people everywhere!

    At least the Dr 1 did not suffer the same fate as the P51. What a loss. I think the P51 pilot had "Lucky Git" ace ability!
