A year after the mid-air collision between two World War II-era aircraft killed six crewmen in front of a large crowd, the Commemorative Air Force will host its annual Veterans Day Weekend event in Dallas without the air show.
The CAF recently provided the overall status of their fleet, granting insight into aircraft in various stages, including restoration and those up for assignment.
Survivors of a pilot killed in the midair collision of a B-17G and a P-63F during the Wings Over Dallas WWII Airshow last year are suing event organizers.
The family of pilot Len Root filed their lawsuit in Dallas County Court on Thursday. The suit alleges that the show’s air boss was unqualified for the job.
