Smaug
You have my sympathies.
It has been my misfortune to watch 10 aircraft hit the ground at airshows over the years. Each episode took a long time to fade. And you never actually forget them.
But I have to say that as the issues of old age start to unfold, the idea of a premature short sharp end, while engaged in ones favourite pastime, does not seem to be all bad.
