Mr. Roush owns (and has flown) two beautifully restored P-51 Mustangs, worth in the range of $1.5 million to $2 million each. He also owns a company which specializes in the rebulding/remanufacture of the very, very expensive Rolls-Royce Merlin engines that power so many restored P-51s. Not what you would call "jacking around at an air show".

Plus he and Carroll Shelby were there to attend the auction for charity that evening of a special Mustang that they had built.

It's the end of July in Wisconsin.....probably had ice on the wings already! Or maybe they had to much cheese on board and it was weighing the plane down.

If you look at the picture of the plane crash. It would seem that the silver plane was real close (lucky not to get hit by him). Think of old people driving street cars (Older race car drivers too) there is a time when you need to stop doing it. I think this maybe the time for him to stop flying. I have been to that air show. It would very easy to kill 100's of people. It is kind of like having a sprint car race in the fans parking lot. What if he had done that into a apartment and killed people on the ground. Just be cause you have money does not mean you have skill to do something.
