Warning: Crash video autoplays in article.
A pilot died during a gender reveal party when his plane crashed after dispersing pink smoke in the air above the gathering.
A video posted online shows a couple standing in front of a large lit up sign reading “Oh Baby,” before capturing the pilot flying low to the ground while releasing the pink smoke above the pair in San Pedro, Mexico. Just after flying over the couple, the plane’s left wing quickly snapped and the aircraft spiraled out of control and crashed in a nearby field.
Not much to report on here… until you can explain why the wing snapped.
Seems like the wing snapped because he pulled up too hard with a plane that wasn’t designed for it.
my guess is it wasn’t maintained properly as well. that wing definitely failed because he pulled up harder than he should have, but it may have been due to material fatigue as a contributing factor.
either way… the pilot is probably the guy that maintains it.
