No, it didn't. Very low altitude ejection and not much in the way of chute deploying.

Keep 'em in your thoughts...

Had the pleasure of working with Capt. Jenny Casey two occassions here in US and my partner on two in Canada.

This one hurts...

One video shows the pilot on the roof of a house with firemen & medics by him. The rest of the plane seemed to on the ground burning.They had the name & a couple of photos of the deceased. All for trying to comfort us in these trying times. Bless them all. The RCAF always entertained us at Reno.

For reasons I won't go into at this time, most message boards are set to have the edit button only visible for a short while.. OK, I will go into the why, it is to preserve the historic record. Someone posts something, they have I think like 15 minutes to think about it and then it is written and stays.

As board admin, I can always edit or delete posts at your request...

Sad day!
