Found this a few days ago, pretty bad accident. Sadly both the pilot and the wing walker where killed.

To quote my flying school: "There are old pilots and there are bold pilots, but no old, bold pilots."

There is always a risk when you do stunt-work in an airplane, and sometimes the dice roll a bad number. At least we can quite safely say that both the pilot and walker died doing something they love.
