Beja Air Show on Sunday, resulting in a deadly ****** that ******* one pilot, the country’s air force said.

“The air force regrets to announce that at 4:05 pm (1505 GMT), at the Beja Air Show, two planes were the victim of an accident during an aerial demonstration,” it said in a statement.

Video from the incident appeared to show one aircraft that broke away from the formation making a sudden, sharp climb that struck the lead aircraft head-on. The climbing aircraft appeared to lose control and abruptly plummet to the earth, as the aircraft that was struck made a quick but apparently controlled descent to land.

, the pilot of the climbing aircraft lost control and was ******* in the ******, which resulted in a post-impact engine *****. The pilot of the other aircraft managed a landing some ways away. The ****** was not confirmed by the Portuguese air force.

Both planes were part of the six-aircraft Spanish-Portuguese Yakstars team. The team was flying as part of a planned exhibition at the Beja Air Show in southern Portugal, which advertised “world class aerial performances” and rare aviation feats, according to the ********* Airshows

It was not immediately clear what caused the rogue aircraft to break away from the group, or if its sudden climb was a botched part of a planned maneuver.
