Mustangs lost

In case you have not seen it elsewhere, a crash happened at Oshkosh yesterday, a P-51D and a recently restored A-36. It may have been a father and son team. Apparently they got too close on landing. One of the pilots was killed.

It is a shame about the death and the loss of both those planes, especially the A-36. Can't be too many of them around. This happens when people start flying "hot" airplanes. Accidents in WWII outnumbered combat losses by 3 or 4 to 1.
