– Dallas County officials say 6 people are dead after two historic military aircraft collided and crashed Saturday during an air show in Dallas.
No paying customers were on the aircraft, said Coates, of Commemorative Air Force, which also owned the planes. Their aircraft are flown by highly trained volunteers, often retired pilots, he said. Victoria Yeager, the widow of famed Air Force test pilot Chuck Yeager and herself a pilot, was also at the show. She didn't see the collision, but did see the burning wreckage."We were just hoping they had all gotten out, but we knew they didn’t,” she said of those on board.
