Cap-10B Aircraft Crashes at Italian Airshow Killing 1

[kellyhound]

September 6. A Cap-10B aircraft hit the ground (Montichiari, Italy) during the Brixia Airshow, while performing low altitude acrobatics.

Of the two pilots, Marzio Maccarana 26 was killed and Paolo Castellini 55 was injured.

Zero risks for the spectators as the safety distance was accurate.

Looks like he needed just a few more feet in altitude and he maybe could have managed to pull up in time.

the motor obviously died, and the gliding abilities of a cap are obviously not so good...
