Snow Bird Crash at Kmloops

[Ganderite]

It looks like 2 seats ejected. There may have been a passenger in the second seat.

Or, maybe the pilot pulled a handle that would eject both seats, even if second seat is empty.. Don't know if that plane has that feature. It would be a good feature that took civilians for fly-alongs.

There is video that shows the ejection. Not a lot of room nor any parachutes seen. Word is the pilot survived with injuries and the second didn't. I'm really hating 2020 so far.
