Three people have died in this tragic event and the first post on this thread sujested that that the lesons of this accident had not been heeded ,my reaction was an expression of how i felt about this and an admision that i am not the person to be the judge of the flying standards of the yak brigade, however when i fly a high performance aircraft (such as an extra)in a CCT i try to remember what it was like to be a low houred PPL in a C150 or PA38 and fly acordingly.

I love to fly aerobatics but aircraft cannot be flown that way in close proximity to low time pilots and low performance aircraft ,they need the room to learn and it is the responsability of the experienced pilots to give them the space to do so.

My only gripe is with those who from the tone of the first post above seem to be reluctant to curb there need for thrills untill it is safe to do so.

Let us all for the sake of the memory of all three who died endevor to not repeat the events of that tragic day.
