thats exactly why my friend moved to new mexico...... to pursue his wreck chasing hobby. he makes a living doing it too, with magazine articles, taking warbird buffs on tours etc, pretty rugged stuff, i did it with him in vegas when he lived their, but he has now moved to new mexico as vegas crash sites are pretty well picked over & discovered.

TCM recently ran a short film that had a longer clip of the B-17 missle test - the plane went down in a spiral until the G-forces caused it to disintegrate.
