• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

Planes of Fame N9M destroyed in crash. Pilot killed.

The pilot was the highly experienced warbird pilot and mechanic David Vopat, who has flown the N9M (and other vintage aircraft/warbirds) for many years. An absolutely tragic loss.
 
Living in SoCal I've seen that aircraft fly many times going back several decades. Even worse to hear about the pilot. :angel:
 
Going back home to San Diego for grand daughter's graduation first week of June. Was hoping to see the N9MB, as well as visit the Planes of Fame museum.

RIP, David Vopat. Sympathies to your family.
