No, I was in the photo lab a mile away. When the crash bell rang we rode over with the ambulance that takes the crash phorographers along. My wife worked in the main admin building with a window view to the runway. She saw the whole thing, which was basically a two plane formation taking off when one blew a tire and skidded into the jet blast deflector and came to rest right on the ramp for the international airport terminal. Both pilot and RIO got out OK except one either broke or sprained an ankle when he jumped out of the cockpit. This happened in late 1967 I believe.
