Welcome Rick, and I hope that I did not offend anyone either. The aircraft was pretty well damaged as I now hear. It was definitly an accident, but I hesitate to call it a crash, because I have seen them happen a few times too. The aircraft had an emergency landing with hot oil venting into the cockpit and overboard. The propeller wings and belly all were bent as she went off the runway and lost the gear...I am truly sorry for N991R and hope Brent Hisey is OK, and still as dedicated a competitor as he has been in the past. Miss America is one of those perfect civil paint schemes, and exemplifies the semi-stock racing Mustang...Who all is going to Reno?
