Whenever approaching a fire, ALWAYS approach from up wind and not through the toxic smoke.

I am very sorry for you. The F-14 in Jolly Roger design is one of the most beautiful jets there is.

looking at the flags in the video, as he made the turn he was going down wind with too slow of speed and lost lift. You always have to be aware of the wind, especially when blowing as hard as this video looks when going down wind.......remember the air going over the wing is decreased alot when going down wind.......sorry for your loss.

If you have the same airspeed in both directions then it is the same going down wind, but the ground speed needs to be faster going down wind.

Wow! I was there the next day on Friday and saw the wreckage! Sad to see that.

Was something wrong with the plane why was it going so slow in those turns. That’s sad to see does anyone know what caused it?

I haven't seen so dumb mistake with $20k plane. Pilot was too slow in the curve, plus he used too high bank angle and stalled the plane... and even in a such "safe" altitude... But yeah... that's the hobby. Everyone makes mistakes...

OUCH that's sad... and so freakin' expensive! The big shock, other than the too-slow turn and resulting accelerated stall, was how long it took anyone to respond to the smoke and fire. I can see at least one fire extinguisher on the flightline in the video and am shocked that no one ran across immediately to try to extinguish the fire as time is of the essence. Oh well, I've had my share of RC model crashes in my lifetime and definitely feel for that flyer as that was a gorgeous model.

Not too many guys in this hobby can run 500 yards with extinguishers, that could easily end up with someone having heart attack saving what’s left, the jet separate to sections and the turbines stayed in safe locations they actually had no damage just the front of the jet got on fire

@@Tooommmek LOL I'm 72 and in an emergency I'd run like the freakin' wind to try to put out the threat of fire and/or (partially) save a $15,000 toy, mine or a buddy's! Hmmm...I think those "guys in this hobby" need to go to the gym. Happy Holidays & Safe Flying in 2024!

Always a sad moment when you lose such a beautiful model. Especially when it is so damn expensive.. Yea, it might have been pilot error, but, the fact of the matter is I wasn’t there to see all of the variables that may have caused it. Did something get stuck? Did it lose a engine? Was the engines losing power? Or was he just flying to slow? I have had my shares of oops moments in flying all types of planes. Alot from unforeseen circumstances. I feel your pain and frustration. But, we all get back up and start again. I love the Jolly Rogers scheme on the F-14. Actually, any of the planes that the Jolly Rogers on.

Stalled it. That really sucks

Looks like he lost an engine and turned into the dead engine and it bit him hard.. Sucks when that happens.. It also looked like more plane than he Could handle flying..
