On saturday afternoon, 15.46. Two pilots hit each other head on during their preformance.

*WARNING* It is pretty grusesome images.

Hello all,

This accident is even more worse and bad in my opinion, because one of the
killed pilots had planned this as his last show before retiring. Both showdays
where of course cancelled due this accident. Both pilots RIP.

Regards, Ramon.
