Default Definitely a lack of control of the airspace

Very sad indeed! B17 Texas Raiders has been in operation by the CAF since the late 1960's(!)

Pierre Olivier said "Maybe we should stop using pre-1945 aircrafts in air shows and preserve them in museums? I keep thinking that all the flying warbirds will crash one day, if they keep being used in air shows."

I think flying them is one thing, using them in air shows in crowded airspace and stunts is another. See this video to see how crowded the airspace is https://fb.watch/gMINd1qX3G/
