Beaufort Emergency Management workers are still cleaning up debris from a weekend jet crash that left a Blue Angels pilot dead.  Lieutenant Commander Kevin Davis was flying plane 6 when he disappeared beyond the tree line.  A native of Pittsfield, Massachusetts, Davis joined the Blue Angels in September 2005. He was 32-years old.   Monday, emergency officials and the Red Cross continued to help the families who were displaced after trees and parts of the jet hit their neighborhood.  While the cleanup is underway, the county is asking that only emergency officials and neighbors go into the area.

The emergency management director, William Winn, said that's the best way to keep people safe and maintain a solid investigation.

"There's a large debris field and everyone of those parts is very important to determining what happened and why and we don't want any of those parts disturbed until the federal investigators can look at them - determine what the part is- where it came from- and how it got there,” Winn said.

As investigators looked for answers on why the jet crashed many who saw it all happen are still in shock.  On Your Side Lowcountry Reporter Holly Bounds spoke to an eyewitness Monday who says when he saw the fireball he knew exactly what it was.  Fred Yelinek is a pilot himself and still can't believe what happened.

Fred Yelinek has been in Beaufort for 25 years and has seen many Air Shows.  Although he didn't attend Saturday's show at Marine Corps Air Station Beaufort, he says it will be one he'll never forget.

"Of course I've thought, “What in the world could have brought me to that place at that time?" Fred Yelinek said.

With so much work to do as an insulation installer in Bluffton, it was quite odd that Fred Yelinek ended up in Beaufort Saturday afternoon.  But when one of his employees called for help on a household problem- he answered.  Never did he imagine he'd come back with 70 still pictures of jet crash aftermath.

"I heard a grinding, crunching noise behind me.  And I spun around to see a fireball traveling through the trees and to the ground impacting Louis's house.  And I knew instantly it had to be an airplane,” he said.

A pilot himself, Yelinek was saddened to later learn a fellow aviator died as a result of the crash.  But he says Lieutenant Commander Kevin Davis can serve as a symbol of the bravery and courage pilots use in their work.

"While he was in a special environment as a Blue Angel, the most elite, he's so typical of the lined pilot men that we have here in Beaufort full time,” he said.  “The guys that fly and live here locally and fly those F-18's are just as good as Mr. Davis.  And you have to remember when you see our local guys every day they do all the same things every day without the glamour and accolade that Mr. Davis and his crew had.  Just remember every time you see one of those guys, it's “thanks for what you do," he added.
