In the latest foofaraw with the incident between the Americans and the Chinese — the plane collision, the demand for an apology, that whole kerfuffle — it has been alleged that the Chinese pilot was hotdogging, and turned too close to the American craft — thus causing the collision and his own death.

It’s grimly amusing, then, that his name was Wang Wei (pronounced Wong Way).
