    Icon9 Air Show of the Cascades Tragedy

    You may remember last year's annual show featuring the Erickson WWII plane collecion as canceled due to 50+ MPH winds. This year was far worse with the death of vetern acrobatics pilot Marcus Paine.

    Witnessed from front row. Plane took off and attempted an inside loop before attaining sufficient altitude or speed. Failed to even come close to completing the loop crashing nose into the ground. Horrifying to witness
