Videos of two planes colliding mid-air at Dallas Executive Airport near U.S. 67 in the Red Bird area of southwest Dallas have gone viral.
Different footage showing the moment of the Air Show Plane Crash in Dallas, Texas, has been obtained by MandyNews.com.
The two vintage military aircraft colliding in midair prompted Dallas Fire-Rescue to issue Alert 3: Aircraft Emergency.
The FAA reports that at approximately 1:20 on Saturday, a Bell P-63 Kingcobra and a Boeing B-17 Flying Fortress collided and crashed to the ground at the Wings Over Dallas Airshow.
The now-viral videos capture the exact moment the two planes collided and crashed, erupting into a ball of flames and shooting plumes of black smoke into the sky.
Mandy News’ investigation revealed that the collision claimed the lives of six persons.
According to reports, the Commemorative Air Force, the nonprofit organization that organized Saturday’s event, owns both aircraft.
People are claiming in a number of posts that have been seen on social media sites that the plane that was flying from the left hit the other on purpose.
The moves taken, according to CEO and President Hank Coates, were not dynamic.
In a news conference following the accident, Mr. Hank claimed that the planes were safe and well-maintained, and that the organization’s volunteer pilots were highly skilled professionals.
