”Long Island’s Air Show demonstrator, Bob Baranaskas was killed today off Smith Point Park, site of TWA 800, while performing manuevers in his P-40 Warhawwk. Flying as his wing man , his son Chris, was flying the P-51 and witnessed the horrible tragedy. This is all I know about the crash .Both were good friends and ironically this is all I can find out at this time. ”
