## Resource

Avalon Airshow pilot Glen Collins crashed during a high-risk stunt, flying dangerously low at just 100 feet instead of his usual 200, leading to severe spinal injuries. Despite his vast experience, investigators still don’t know why he descended so far — though cockpit footage shows he’d successfully pulled off the same maneuver at higher altitudes before. The crash halted the event and delayed medical care due to pyrotechnics and canopy access issues. In response, organizers are mandating minimum 100-foot altitudes, improving emergency access, and training first responders — turning tragedy into a blueprint for safer airshows.
