A Spanish stunt pilot has died after he collided with another aircraft during an aerobatic display at an air show in Portugal.
Video of the crash shows how the Spanish pilot dropped his aircraft to a lower altitude than the other five members of his team before attempting a stunt in which he aimed to fly upwards between them, only to cause a collision.
The victim of the crash has been named by Spanish newspapers from his home region of Galicia as Manuel Rey Cordeiro, a commercial pilot of more than 60 years of age who also had decades of experience as an aerobatic stunt performer under his belt.
