  • 13/11/2022

At least two people were killed when two vintage World War Two planes collided and crashed during an air show in the US state of Texas. The footage shows the planes colliding at a low altitude, splitting one of the planes in half. The impact on the ground is visible as a fireball.

The aircraft, one of which was a Boeing B-17 Flying Fortress, were participating in a memorial air show close to Dallas. Exactly how many people were in the two aircraft was not immediately known.

Allied Pilots Association, which represents American Airlines pilots, reported that two of its former members, Terry Barker and Len Root, were among those killed in the collision. 

Other media reports suggest as many as six people may have died in the collision.
