Aviation event in Beja, Portugal, was canceled after an aerobatics team suffered a deadly mid-air collision
Two planes collided mid-air during the Beja Air Show in southern Portugal on Sunday, leaving one of the pilots dead and another injured.
The fatal accident occurred during the display by the Yaksars, a Portuguese-Spanish aerobatics team that flies the Yakovlev Yak-52, a Soviet-era trainer piston aircraft. Multiple videos of the crash were taken by spectators who’d gathered to watch the show.
Footage from the scene shows six Yak-52s flying in a tight diamond formation, with one of the planes falling out of it and lagging behind. The aircraft, which appeared to be emitting smoke from its engine, abruptly climbed and hit another one before coming to a halt.
