I was at the air show. It was heartbreaking to witness this crash and harder to continue watching the rest of the show while the jet was smoldering in the distanced.

I was there also. I don't know why they tried to continue the show afterwards. Doing the missing man formation was respectful, but that should of been the end of the show out of respect for the pilot and his family who were there. Sad day.
