Just heard on the six o'clock news that a Sea Fury has crashed during an air show in ZR. There was no report of casualities. Anybody know what happened?

Hey guys,

I am from Sarnia, and was working at the airport at the time it happened. I volunteered to help out.

Unfortunately, I witnessed it all, but luckily, did not see the moment of impact. Everyone was totally confused, and the worst part, was that I believe his son witnessed the whole thing. Very sad.

Thanks, CB.
Chris, who owned the airplane, the CWH?
I know one of the guys there, but he was flying the Lanc, last I heard.

I believe Carey Moore, was the owner, and pilot. He owned Moore Restoration, in Kitchener, I believe.
