Two small airplanes collided in the air during an air show in southern Portugal, according to the air force. One of the pilots died, according to Portuguese media.

A video clip recorded by a spectator and published on social media shows a formation of six planes in the air, where one of them takes off and appears to hit one of the other planes, before crashing to the ground.

The incident occurred on Sunday shortly after 4:00 pm local time, according to the air force.
