Very sad to see two lives lost and yet another historic aircraft needlessly destroyed in a bodged flypast, almost a carbon copy of the T-28 crash in Hungary a few weeks ago.
Another ‘ look at me !’ flypast, pitch up, poorly executed roll, leaving aircraft pointing irrecoverably at the ground, and a last second flick, as the pilot desperately pulls stick all the way back. And another hapless passenger killed.

If a pilot pull up into a climb and starts to roll, then at low level the a/c is all set to end badly. The pitch input MUST be neutralised BEFORE starting the roll. It’s also basic to ensure the manoeuvre is going pair-shape throughout the manoeuvre. Still, he won’t do that again. Shame for the +1.

The application of up- elevator whilst inverted at maybe 600 feet is so insane it makes me wonder if the passenger grabbed the stick as the negative G came on, or possibly there was not full and free control movement, due to a misplaced camera or phone, for instance.
Some years ago, a Yak 52 (G-LENA) crashed at Bournemouth airport, unable to recover from a low level roll probably because the Pax had not fastened the harness properly, and the dangling bottom shackles contacted and fouled the stick.
