6 killed after vintage aircraft collide at Dallas air show

达拉斯航空展老式飞机相撞6人死亡

DALLAS: Six people were killed after two historic military planes collided and crashed to the ground Saturday afternoon during a Dallas air show, officials said.

"According to our Dallas County Medical Examiner, there are a total of 6 fatalities from yesterday's Wings over Dallas air show incident," Dallas County Judge Clay Jenkins tweeted Sunday. He said authorities are continuing to work to identify the victims.

Emergency crews raced to the crash scene at the Dallas Executive Airport, about 10 miles (16 kilometers) from the city's downtown. News footage from the scene showed crumpled wreckage of the planes in a grassy area inside the airport perimeter. Dallas Fire-Rescue told The Dallas Morning News that there were no reported injuries among people on the ground.

达拉斯：官员表示，周六下午，在达拉斯的一场航空展上，两架古老的军用飞机相撞坠毁，造成6人死亡。

达拉斯法官克莱·詹金斯周日在推特上写道：“根据我们达拉斯县医学检查官的说法，昨天发生在达拉斯上空的飞行表演事件共造成6人死亡。”。他说，当局正在查明受害者的身份。

紧急救援人员迅速赶到距离市中心约10英里（16公里）的达拉斯行政机场坠机现场。现场新闻片段显示，机场周边一片草地上，飞机残骸皱巴巴。达拉斯消防救援队告诉《达拉斯晨报》，据报道，地面人员没有受伤

Officials did not specify how many people were inside each plane, but Hank Coates, president of the company that put on the airshow, said one of the planes, a B-17 Flying Fortress bomber, typically has a crew of four to five people. The other, a P-63 Kingcobra fighter plane, has a single pilot.

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.

Dallas Mayor Eric Johnson said the National Transportation Safety Board had taken control of the crash scene, with local police and fire providing support.

"The videos are heartbreaking," Johnson said on Twitter.

官员们没有具体说明每架飞机内有多少人，但举办航展的公司总裁汉克·科茨表示，其中一架飞机是B-17飞行堡垒轰炸机，机组人员通常为四至五人。另一架是P-63 Kingcobra战斗机，只有一名飞行员。

科茨表示，飞机上没有顾客。他说，他们的飞机由训练有素的志愿者驾驶，通常是退休飞行员。

达拉斯市长埃里克·约翰逊表示，国家运输安全委员会已经控制了事故现场，当地警方和消防部门提供了支持。

约翰逊在推特上表示：“这令人心碎。”
