He was more fortunate than the pilot of a P-51 fighter plane at the EAA fly-in in Oshkosh, WI.  The two P-51's collided, killing a 50-some year old man from North Dakota.  I just read about it in our local paper.

 Those baby's tip over pretty easily. We had one clip the inside curb when turning into the jobsite and over it went. The drum was full and could not be removed before the concrete hardened. They cut it away from the truck and it sat there for two days (in the road) until a crane could be scheduled to lift it on a lowbed.
