Charles Thomas "Chuck" Coleman, the flight instructor who trained actors for the 2022 film Top Gun: Maverick, died in a small plane crash during an air show in New Mexico. The incident occurred around 2:30 PM local time on Sunday when Coleman, the sole occupant of the two-seat Extra Flugzeugbau EA300 monoplane, was performing aerobatic maneuvers at the Las Cruces Air and Space Expo at Las Cruces International Airport. The plane crashed approximately half a mile west of the airport, leading to the cancellation of the air show.
