This was on the FOX news web site publised by the AP. It is about an accident involving a plane that was participating in an Air Race in Yukon, OK.

http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,158025,00.html

This was from the end of the article. UGH!

"Scott Rayburn, the owner of Aerospace Refinishing, Inc. (search) on the airport grounds, said the planes involved in the races are small, propeller-driven aircraft between 12- and 15-feet long.

"They're like oversized model airplanes," Rayburn said. "This is definitely not something you want to fly in from here to Texas.

"They look like coffins with wings."


Thing is... the pilot didnt die! The guy going to rescue the pilot fell out of the truck and died!
