The two people aboard ejected before the jet went down just after 4 p.m., but when the plane hit the ground, it burst into a raging fireball, narrowly missing an apartment building in Van Buren Township and hitting vehicles but not injuring anyone. Emergency crews rushed to extinguish the flames.

The jet was flying in Yankee Air Museum’s Thunder over Michigan air show at the Willow Run Airport near Ypsilanti, a city between Ann Arbor and Detroit.

The plane, a former Soviet − now Russian − MiG-23 aircraft, was doing aerial maneuvers. It was not immediately clear what malfunction led the two aboard to eject and the jet to crash. The Federal Aviation Administration is investigating.

  30. I'm here in Ypsilanti Michigan
    I was at Kroger when this happened
    The alert came on my grandson phone yesterday around 4:30-5:00 pm.
    Glad they're doing well 🎉

  31. Yo bro.. jet engine bro.. it's on fire bro….

  32. It's a Mig 23.

    Either that or a P51 mustang or BF-109

  33. "Russian (fill in the blank)" and "crash", "malfunction", or "disaster" are often said way too frequently in the same sentence 😂

  34. Maybe there's a reason why that plane was retired?

  35. Allegedly some people only go to airshows in the hope that there are crashes. I think it was opined by that late, great, American philosopher, George Carlin. 😇
