Secondhand Lions

Walter's mother lets him stay with his uncles. Years later when Walter is a grown man, Hub and Garth die flying the plane into their barn. They leave a will saying "the kid gets it all, plant us in the damn garden with the stupid lion". After Walter reads the will, the grandson of the sheik Hub did not kill earlier comes to see the site of the legends his grandfather always talked about.

Question: Was the ending a suicide or just an accident?

Answer: An accident. They were inexperienced pilots trying dangerous barnstorming stunts. A fitting end for two adventurers afraid of nothing.
