The builder of a replica of the Bugatti 100p racing plane was killed in the crash of the aircraft in Oklahoma on Saturday. NewsOn6 reported Scotty Wilson, of Tulsa, was flying the aircraft when it went down near Clinton-Sherman Air Force Base in west central Oklahoma. The aircraft was copied from a 1930s design by Ettore Bugatti who built a prototype that never flew because the Second World War started. Wilson and his team built the aircraft in Tulsa but the crash scene was about 200 miles west. Circumstances of the crash have not been released.
