I listened to Jack earlier that morning speaking with Bud Anderson at "warbirds in review" up in the Warbird area. He must have left and was returning. My wife and I were sitting at our plane and saw him about to crash. I got up the second I looked up and saw him wallowing around and my wife and I sprinted west as we were only about 100 yards from where he planted it...... Scary...... The engines continued running for at least 1-2 minutes after the crash. A piper cub had just took off on 18 right as Jack was making a low slow left turn base to 18 right. My "guess" he obviously got too slow and stalled in.
I took these pics from a few rows forward of where we were. The EAA quickly started pushing us back and thankfully our row "78" was where folks were made to stay behind for a couple of hours.
