No It was a Blue Angel  F-18 hornet that crashed in the Gulf. The Pilot ejected safely. It was two Canadian Ct-144 that crashed Killing one pilot the other ejected safely, In Moose Jaw Canada.  Pictured above is the U.S. Air force Thunderbirds F-16, It's  just one Team paying respect to another.

Wow, that's really terrible.  The Snowbirds put on a great show... hopefully the rest of the team will also be able to move on with another increadible year.  Will definately keep family in prayers.

Sad

Our local paper (Moose Jaw Times Herald) had 3 pages about the incident, with lots of photos of the wreckage.
