Another reason to avoid gender reveal parties, I guess

So...they didn't even reveal the pilots gender? Maybe a gender reveal funeral?

Some of these planes are built so the wings don't fall off

My first RC Airplane I ever built folded like that.
I instantly knew the spot I used Balsa Wood when I should have used Ply Wood.
Took an hour to dig that engine out of the dirt.

Looked like the confetti air cannon blew the wing off, rickety plane

looks more like a crop duster than an acrobatic plane

That camera guy is a pro, focusing back on the party instead of the falling aircraft, he knows who’s paying him.

That plane would have failed sooner or later anyhow. What the hell we the mechanics doing?

Looks like a stress failure that was deemed "nah, it'll hold" or missed entirely. Thankfully it didn't fall on people or crash into a building.

I don't think safety standards in mexico are as stringent as most English-speaking countries.

Gender reveal parties are stupid, I would not go to one and I would never have one.
