  • On May 14, 2016, about 1647 eastern daylight time, an experimental amateur-built Pitts S-2SW, N24CD, collided with terrain during an aerial display at DeKalb-Peachtree Airport (PDK), Atlanta, Georgia. The commercial pilot was fatally injured. The airplane was destroyed by impact forces and a postcrash fire. The airplane was registered to a corporation and was operated by the pilot under the provisions of Title 14 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) Part 91 as an air show flight. Day, visual meteorological conditions prevailed at the time of the accident, and no flight plan was filed. The local flight originated from PDK about 1642.
    Probable Cause and Findings
    The National Transportation Safety Board determines the probable cause(s) of this accident to be:
    The pilot's failure to maintain proper positioning during performance of an aerobatic maneuver and his subsequent failure to discontinue maneuvering when unable to reestablish proper positioning during a steep descent toward the ground

A bunch of adventurous, kind of crazy souls sharing their love for their planes and for aviation in general. It can be a little dangerous sometimes, but the love far outweighs any little fears there might be.

      My only guess would be he came out of his 'spiral dive' late, and couldn't pull up in time. The aircraft that crashed was 'diving down' while rotating (doing barrel-rolls strait down essentially), when he leveled off to pull up, he was possibly to low to successfully make that pull-up.

      I read the quote and smoke to illustrate that the Pitts was to pass above, but when the other pilot saw him going low he pulled up. Looks like he completed his roll too low. It would make sense that the Pitts would want to complete the maneuver above instead of below because the partner would have had eyes on and was level while approaching. It would have been much easier for him to deconflict.. and it looked like he would have if the Pitts had recovered.
