The air show that took place in Dallas, Texas this Saturday, November 12, turned tragic when two planes dating from the Second World War collided in mid-flight.
A collision as impressive as it is dramatic. While in the air at an air show in Dallas, Texas, two World War II planes collided.
Uncertainty about the victims
Information should quickly be communicated as to any casualties on board. The two devices fell to the ground before igniting, causing no injuries among the public.
An investigation was opened and entrusted to the American aviation regulator (FAA), which indicated that it did not know at this stage “how many people were on board”, specifies AFP quoted by Le Monde.
On social networks, images of the collision were broadcast and testify to the violence of the accident. This show was held as part of the November 11 celebrations dedicated to war veterans, says AFP.
It appears that one of the crashed planes was a B-17, a four-engined bomber, widely used by American forces during World War II. The shows as part of this event organized at the Dallas airport were to continue this Sunday, November 13. They have been cancelled.
