Crazy footage of the crash today. Two EA-18G Growlers from the Navy's demo team collided. Dry conditions and high winds have all roads shut down for emergency response and firefighting.

I’ve never seen 2 planes collide and stick together. Amazing the pilots were able to eject.

Were the Thundersbirds scheduled to fly today ?
Assuming they canceled the rest of the show ?
Yeah, rest of show except static displays were cancelled. They had all roads around the crash site locked down until the fire was under control and scene secured.
