Anyone know the tail # on this one? Hope its not the pilot I met at Barking Sands as he was a really nice guy... The Hawker's a good looking birds up close. Either way Godspeed to the pilot and condolences for his family and friends.

And just a little over two months after we lost "Neptunus Lex" LaFon in an ATAC Kfir at Fallon... :( My sincerest condolences go to the family and friends of the pilot. ATAC has had an absolutely terrible year. :(

That witness account is pretty disturbing.

According to the FAA, it was N329AX, not 321AX.
