I think these guys came to GA last year. My son and his buddy took a tour of this plane. If it’s the plane that flies around and gives rides with other ww2 aircraft.

Just seen another look from another angle. They p model, never moved any flight controls at the end. Almost look like he miscalculatEd or he meant it

Likely couldn't see the spacing below while in the turn. The low wing obscured the view beneath. Very sad.

If you see more videos, you will see what I see. I can’t seem to get it to post

The airshow said neither plane was carrying paying passengers.

It does look like the P-63 miscalculated. From one view I thought the B-17 was turning left and the 63 turned down and right into it.

My brother in law and his wife did fly on that B-17 last year.

Sad all around. 5 Crewmen on the Fortress, only one pilot in the P-63,
