The pilot of a World War Two fighter plane may have crashed at an airshow because he was not flying fast enough to complete an aerial loop, according to the official accident report

....

The accident happened in front of 50,000 people at the annual Biggin Hill airfield show in Kent.
I've noticed a strange phenomenon.. there seems to be a crash every time I don't bother going to the Biggin Hill air show..

Equally, as I noticed at Brands Hatch on Monday, cars only seem to crash or leave the track when my camera is not pointing at them.. humbug...

In that case I vote that in the interests of safety, CarZee should be present at all airshows to prevent the aircraft from crashing.

Also, some of the big racing teams may be interested in having him in a helicopter pointing his camera at their car at all times to prevent any crashes.
