RV-8 & Long EZ collide during formation practice

[gmcjetpilot]

Sunday above Delaware Bay around 10:50am two experimental aircraft collided. The one pilot was named as Ralph D. Morgan and the builder and pilot of the RV8 involved.

Authorities said six experimental planes from a group called The Vultures had just completed a maneuver called Six Ship Opposing and had broken off into separate groups of three when two planes in one group collided.

Our prayers are with both pilots and their families.

I received a message from the U.S. Air Race Vice President saying that the man entered as Racer #78 was killed in formation practice.
