Dallas air show crash
Crash at Dallas airshow. Graphic footage all over twitter and media which I am not going to attach. A P-63 Kingcobra collides with a B17 bomber, the Kingcobra disintegrates and the B17 splits in 2 and hits the ground in a fireball. All over very quickly. Utterly terrible to watch. Condolences to families of everyone involved.
Seems to be already causing further controversy about air shows and old planes. Can I ask how others here feel about airshows and old planes? Some here may even have participated as these shows. My grandfather took me to quite a few as a child. Never saw an accident and they seemed days of great excitement to me as a kid, but I'd quickly admit to not knowing much about current day airshows at all , and I've no idea how most people on here would feel about them now.
