Woops!! :eek :eek

That was a rather expensive mishap?? What happened there?

Pilot error I guess?

Very impressive how the rotors peeled off and the actual impact looked relatively 'non violent' I can well believe the pilot would walk away....

It looked to me like he just misjudged where the ground was?? :eek :drama

A few $millon just disappeared.... hope it was insured :eek :laughing :pop :yoda2 :Wolvie

How lucky was he... and everyone else that he missed the parked cars and crew :realcrazy

:Confederate

.

Held a 90* bank for too long and dropped .... this was a privately held warbird-collector-machine that was doing a video for a car company ... Hyundai I think. Pretty sure everybody walked away.


Edit .... it was filmed in Arizona and the car was a Corvette

Here is some info... whether true or not, there was a bang just before the crash... so possibly a mechanical failure... or maybe that is for the insurance company :badluck :realcrazy

Pilot and co pilot were ok :like :gyro2 :pop :yoda2 :Wolvie
