Dallas – Six people were killed when two planes participating in the Dallas Air Show collided during a practice demonstration. In the Second World War (1939–1945), the Boeing B17 Flying Fortress, which played an important role in winning the air war against Germany, collided with the P63 King Cobra, which was in the same battle.
For the first time in the US, an air show featuring World War II-era aircraft has been organized to mark Veterans Day.
Dallas County officials said six people, including the pilots, died in the crash. The historic planes collided on Saturday evening, leaving the spectators stunned. Dallas Mayor Eric Johnson responded that the accident was heartbreaking. The mayor also informed that an investigation has been started. The authorities have not officially released the details of those who died in the accident or the cause of the accident.
