I did not know about Blackbushe so I'll note that it is the first US buggered fuselage.
There is a major join in the area where it came apart.

Added note after seeing Robbreid post.
Now I remember the Blackbushe accident, so this one at OSH will be the first 1A
.
They do seem to have addressed the earlier problems with the lift/dump configuration of late.

Hope I'm not being ageist..
..but dear ol Jack is nudging 70.... and operating a twinjet (even a Premier) can demand a certain level of awareness, currency and all-round competence. 2 write-offs in 8 years? Well he can surely afford a personal/company pilot. Glad he walked away all the same. bm.

ROUSH - confirms he lost his left eye in accident, "I think it's very likely that I'll be able to fly. I've got to get recovered. I have to go through my recovery. Wiley Post was a one-eyed pilot and there's no restriction. Maybe if you're an airline pilot you can't have one eye, but there's not a reason why I can't fly with one eye."

A number of demonstrated-ability airline pilots including captains are flying Par 121.

Well, the guy who took it probably won't see the tape again. I'm still waiting for mine after filming the P.51 collision in 2007!!!. I don't actually want the crash bit, but would like the rest!.
