I put Air Shows up there with NASCAR events as far as risk. 

Seems we sadly see this once every year or two.

Flying B-17s are as rare as hen teeth.

I'm sure there'll be some footage coming out showing what happened.

We love going to the air show close to us and seeing the Thunderbirds and the Blue Angels. I have always be in awe of the pilots' abilities and have also considered the tremendous risk that they take.
