Dont know if this was ever posted, but its of a nasty SU27 crash at an airshow in the Ukraine.

Looks like the jet went into a maneuver way to low and bellied into the crowd.

I edited out the gore stuff.

Look at time period 26 seconds, you can see the parachute from the pilot.

That one has never been posted before sys, and its an excellent clip...

It seems as if the crowd is scattered around the airfield according to the "low crowd density" there where this sukhoi crashed.

Any fatalities?

hope not......

OMG!

Still the news coming from states like that seems to have difficulties getting serious attention in the 'western news'. If compared with the Rammstein incident
