I tried the links but they are broken. If this in reference to the Reno air races, I know of 2 people who were there when the P51 crashed. One gentleman owns Mustang Aviation in Pierre,SD. and told me recently that he was less than 50 yards from the impact. Fortunately it impacted away and in front of him. This gentleman was quite certain that the horizontal stabilizer trim tab broke off of the P51....they did find it in the desert the next day. The other gentleman I know was in a briefing at the time and wasn't anywhere near the crash....he is part of the Patriots L-39 aerobatic team and a former Blue Angel...Lt. Cmdr. Scott "Banker" Ind.
 
Indeed.. the links didnt work.. sry..:-( Aye, was pertaining to both the disasters...:-(
