The "really sad" part about this is the idiot pilot had been reprimanded before for flying stupidly and he was allowed to keep flying. Had it just been him dying in a crash, then little loss, however, he killed his crew, too. The only positive thing to come out of this is he won't be killing anyone else. Cold? Nope! That is a simple statement of fact.
Was 4 years old and was there when this happened... Fairchild AFB... What happened was the pilot was showing off and he pulled too tight a turn at too low an altitude and the engines stalled out... These were the consequences... At least that's how my dad told it the next day... 9 people died if I recall...
This is really sad...
Holy son of a cracker!!!
Holy Crap!

i read sumthing bout this that the controls failed or sumthin
Failed controls or not I think it's pretty clear that the pilot made a horrible mistake there.
