Plane Crash At Spanish Airshow

A terrible tragedy and chilling to watch. I had the opportunity to sit in this aircraft on 4/30/2012. It was in immaculate condition.

I think it was probably just a corsswind correction. When applying power for takeoff, pilots will turn the ailerons into the wind for correction.
