Awful Disaster at Air Show

Postby Bennie Vorster » Wed Dec 08, 2010 9:54 am

Brace yourself before looking at the image below . A pilot at low level has lost control of his aircraft. It narrowly misses a crowd gathered for the airshow and slams into four buildings. One can only imagine the horror of the occupants trapped inside those buildings.
