Sadly I report the fatal crash of a privately owned two-seat MiG-15 on
Saturday afternoon at Canberra, Australia. As far as I know, the MiG was
at Canberra to participate in an air show. Videotape shown on local news
showed the MiG in a rapid descent, possibly an engine failure, and the
aircraft was totally destroyed on impact with the loss of both crew members.
