My prayers are with his family. That happened a mile from my son's house. He is stationed in Beaufort, SC. A very sad day.

What a tragic event.
Praying for his family.

That would be the 26th out of 60 years.  Tragic to say the least.  First time in the show as a player but had been with the team for a couple years in different capacities.  Stating the obvious, there is no room for human error on that or any stunt team.  I really hope it was a mechanical failure and not human error on his or the technicians working on the Aircraft.  If it was a Technician error, you guys have no idea how ugly that will get. (well some of you might) 

My thoughts go out to all the Navy as we are a family and to all the BA Team and Crew!

On the news the day it happened they said he aircraft clipped a tree that was taller than the others, went a couple hundred yards before going down.

The sad thing of it all , is it was the 1st time his parents saw him fly.

I remember seeing the Blue Angels fly on numerous occasions when I was little. I went to airshows alot.  To see them fly is breath taking. I still get chills thinking about watching them fly.  They will awlays be my favorite jet.  May he fly in peace.
