Very sad, he was far to young to go. I'm not a fan of low level acro when it involves pointing the nose of the airplane at the ground. This sort of thing is just too easy to happen and happens all too frequently.

Very sad

Very sad and tragic. My thoughts and prayers go out to his family.

I've seen Sean's performances on three occassions over the last two years and each time he seemed to improve. The last time was in August at the Pacific Coast Air Museum Airshow in Santa Rosa. After the show was over he and his father were by the food stands eating a slice of pizza while my son and I walked by. We stopped and chatted for a brief moment and he came across as a really nice guy.

I thought that he was going to be one of the big stars of aerobatics in the coming years. Now we'll never know what might have been.

Blue skies Sean...
