KEY POINTS:
RADOM, Poland - Two pilots were killed performing aerial acrobatics at an air show in Poland when their aircraft collided head-on in front of thousands of spectators.
A Reuters photographer at the scene said the collision occurred after a three-plane formation fanned out and two of the aircraft
slammed into each other as they attempted to re-converge.
The stricken planes plummeted towards a wooded area at the edge of the airfield near the south-central town of Radom.
Pilots from 15 different countries were taking part in the air show which was cancelled after the crash.
