That’s the 3rd time that one has crashed. It was formerly the Chino Cow Killer.

Now confirmed the victims were John Earley, the plane’s owner, and his flying instructor, Michael Schlarb.

RIP Both of you 🙁

It’s been reported that a P51 has crashed near La Plata County Airport with the loss of the two occupants :apologetic:

Terrible news

There is an online article about a P51 based at La Plata, but there is no confirmation it is that example.
