I know anybody can edit Wikipedia and it only takes seconds, but I’m still a little surpised that this incident has already been reflected in their Blue Angels entry.

Gosh I pray he was able to eject.

The report says the pilot was killed, but doesn't identify him.

Closest military base?

Mechanical failure?

Years ago had Thunderbird team go down. Believe followed lead pilot.

Pray for pilot/ pilot’s family and family on ground.

He probably didn't. They try to avoid populated areas first.

I have a good friend who lives in Beaufort. I really wish I could hear from her right now just so I could know she and her family and home are safe.

If the neighborhood is reflective of the photos from Google Earth, it isn’t a heavely populated area. Pine Grove Road is about a mile off the end of the western end of the runway at BMCAS
