Local man among 6 killed in Dallas air show crash

-

A Montgomery County man and longtime pilot was identified as one of six people killed during a midair collision at a Dallas air show Saturday.

Craig Hutain of Montgomery was piloting the Bell P-63 Kingcobra fighter when it collided with a Boeing B-17 at the Commemorat­ive Air Force Wings Over Dallas WWII Air Show, according to the organizati­on. The other five men killed were aboard the B-17 Flying Fortress.

The National Transporta­tion Safety Board and Federal Aviation Administra­tion are investigat­ing the collision, including why both aircraft were flying at the same altitude and in the same air space.
