That image of the crashing planes looks horrid. It almost doesn't look real, that pale green.

Two pilots dead in crashed Mustangs this summer. Bad luck for those unfortune pilots? It isn't always this bad. Let's hope nothing terrible happens at the gathering of 100 Mustangs this fall.

We've got two different threads going on the same subject. If anyone wants to read the other one it's at World War II - aviation>warbird diplays> P-51 accident at Oshkosh.
