  • Plane crashes at a drag strip during a race!

    I am not sure how to embed this.



    Iceland.
    3 persons onboard,Captain and Medic killed, Co-Pilot survives with minor injuries. No injuries on the ground.

    Investigation is still active, plane was fully functional and well maintained. This was not an emergency landing. Co-Pilot has not commented publicly but it is known that he made remarks to the Captain about the dangerous flying.

    Captain had requested a go around moments before landing at an airport close by and flew dangerously fast and low heading to dragstrip according to witnesses and crashed. Captain had close connections to the club running the dragstrip.
    This is the Co-Pilot's second plane accident, excactly 12 years prior to the crash he had an emergency landing where the medic that died treated him for minor injuries.

      you just search the video title on youtube and then embed it, easiest way.

        you have GOT to be kidding me, the co-pilot survived that? That is a fucking miracle.

            I'd say it's time to cash in that lotto ticket, and find a different profession.

                      In reading the blurb below the video, it sounds to me like the Pilot was showing off to his racer buddies with a fly-by, and lost control. If true what a senseless tragedy for the Medic's family.
