April 1946 a Navy Vaught Corsair FU4 crashed into a Burlington, Iowa schoolyard killing two boys, the pilot and injured eight others. This crash had been reported in Wikipedia but is no longer available. The article claimed that three Vought Corsairs had just flown over an air show at the Burlington air port when the plane in the middle lost control when it was caught up in the wash of the other two planes. I witnessed the position of the planes prior to the crash and they were flying side by side, wing tip to wing tip. They had just finished a roll over maneuver and the two outside planes shot straight up and the plane in the middle dove straight down and crashed into the field just adjacent to the schoolyard.
