Brazil: Esquadrilha da Fumaca crash Aug 12 2013
Brazil's Esquadrilla da Fumaca lost two pilots and an A-29 Super Tucano during a test/training flight on 12 Aug, according to a Estado de Sao Paulo news report. From the report, the aircraft was on the bottom half of a low level loop; crew ejected but too low for effective parachute opening.
