Jack Roush Aircraft Accident Pics
 
These were forwarded to me by someone that was on the same field that JR was trying to land at. The aircraft was a composite based Beechcraft Premier.

Good example of someone that should have his license yanked (IMO) as it is not his first accident. He could have killed an aweful lot of people.

Holy crap! :shock:

The pilot of that other plan is definitely gonna need a wardrobe change......

Fascinating sequence.

Yes, he has done this before. He hung up an ultralight in some power lines a few years back, with a long hospital recuperation. It is a shame that he didn't learn his lesson then.

On July 27, 2010, Roush crash-landed in his Raytheon/Beechcraft Premier 390 jet, (registration N6JR,) during an approach to the Experimental Aircraft Association (EAA) AirVenture Fly-In in Oshkosh, Wisconsin in the late afternoon.[5] He walked out of the plane and was taken to a nearby hospital.[6] His condition was listed at serious but stable that evening. On August 3, Roush was upgraded to fair condition.[6] On August 13, Roush made his first at track appearance since the incident at the Michigan International Speedway. During that time he confirmed that he fractured his back, broke his jaw, and lost his left eye as a result.[7]

WTF!!! He looked like he was level on his approach. Did he try to change runways at the last second???

Nice Pics! Yeah, not very good flying skills being demonstrated.

I think he needs bigger sway bars...
