I’ve made no secret that I’m a fan of air shows, and the Blue Angles particularly. It’s with sadness, tonight, that I pass along news of the death of one of the Angles:
PENSACOLA, Fla. —FOX/AP- Investigators looked through wreckage Sunday to determine what caused a Navy Blue Angel jet to crash during a maneuver, while the military identified the fallen pilot as a 32-year-old who was performing in one of his first air shows with the team.
Lt. Cmdr. Kevin J. Davis of Pittsfield, Mass. was in his second year with the Blue Angels, the team known for its high-speed, aerobatic demonstrations, Lt. Cmdr. Garrett Kasper said.
(Sigh)
They don’t know why, yet, apparently.
