Charlie Cowles at Reno Air Race Crash

This is a note from Charlie I received a couple days ago and I thought I would share.

BTW, Warbirds Chief Judge Eric Paul, Chris and Kim Garber were also there.

Everyone is fine

In frame #10 we are sitting in the two blue lawn chairs to the right of the camera man in green.

Charlie in white hat, white shirt and green shorts.

Bob in brown hat, black shirt and dark shorts.

Follow us in frames10, 11, 12 & 13, Charlie stands up and Bob hits the deck.

Many more accident pics and videos on You Tube.

It was very traumatic seeing that plane and pilot disintegrate right before our eyes.

Pray for those injured and dead.

From other photos on you tube it appears 1/2 the trim tab tore loose.
