Been watching your videos. Very interesting to watch. My wife lost a uncle in February 24 1969 in a flight training exercise for the US navy in the California mountains. He's Name was Harlow William Rawls, graduate from Texas A&M. He's plane was never found. He's plan
Nice video I saw probably one of the last flights out of Fox Field in Lancaster ca, they took off and went vertical about mid runway, it was an absolutely gorgeous plane, It crashed filming The movie Sucubus Hell Bent with Lorenzo Lamas I'm sure the crew was devastated, Great job on the video, Thanks for letting me come along for the ride, Luis
late to the party as usual..but great site Thanks for the info I curranty searching info on an aircraft that crashed in the Adirondacks near our cabin. some years and years ago
The flight crew in the accident airplane and the producer-director in a second camera ship departed for a planned aerial photography flight. During the filming operation, the director issued a series of instructions to the accident flight crew, and the flight crew maneuvered their airplane pursuant to the instructions. After filming for about 1 hour, the producer, who was in the camera ship at 5,500 feet mean sea level (msl), directed that the accident airplane's crew to perform a "sharp snap roll to the right and pull down out of frame." The crew responded by rolling into a right 135-degree bank and descending. During the attempted recovery from the near split "S" course reversal turn, the airplane impacted the underlying 3,100-foot elevation hillside. Cameras in the accident airplane and the camera ship recorded video and audio during the accident flight that was reviewed during the investigation. No abnormalities in the accident aircraft were observed. The severity of the impact and fire damage to flight controls and associated system components precluded confirmation of their preimpact integrity. Examination of available airframe and engine components revealed no evidence of preimpact mechanical malfunction.
+Albert Gallagher It's possible but I think it's very unlikely. That's probably a wilderness area that is protected by the government so getting permission to bury people out there would be extremely difficult. And then the geology of the area would make it virtually impossible to cut a grave there, it looks like the area has just a very thin layer of fine, sandy soil with the bed rock just a little under the surface so it would be virtually impossible, and highly impractical to bury someone there. The markers are probably memorials to the pilot and rear seat who died there left by family and friends who visited the site...
MAPIER65 Thanks for the comment! I try to be as accurate as I can , and I'm sure that I will make mistakes from time to time. Thanks again for the input and support!!!
Got to agree with you there. Look, inspect but don't throw the pieces after, put them back as you find them. Unless it is a wreck where people lost their lives, then DO NOT TOUCH!!!

So, the pilot is buried at the crash site?
I'm sure they recovered his remains

There is a memorial on site just up a cliff by no remains, surely they had cleaned up
Strange how they just scattered all over the place wonder how fast it was going 🤔
L39 canopies are hinged at the back
L-39 canopies are hinged laterally on the right side
