Snowbird died after his seatbelt came undone, investigators find

I loved the Snowbird show at Dayton 2003.

It's sad that something as mundane could do so much harm.

"I've got a blow-out in vapour3. Pitch is out I can't hold it. Capcom I can't hold it she's breaking up, she's breaking up!" has so much more going for it.

I just hope elements in the RCAF who have seen the Snowbirds as an inefficient use of scarce resources can't use it to ground the team.
