One pilot has died after two planes collided in flight before the start of a local airshow on the beaches of Tortoreto on Italy’s Adriatic coast. The crash happened on a sunny day as families gathered for a fun day out at the beach.
The incident took place just ahead of Frecce Tricolori airshow when two member of the QBR, “Goodfellas”, amateur sports team were performing stuns in their two-seater propeller planes. The airshow scheduled later for Sunday was canceled.

“We saw two planes flying at low altitude and not very fast. When they clashed we heard a bang and within seconds they had fallen into the sea, not far from the shoreline,” Marco Valenti told local news.
According to local authorities, a 47- year old pilot from Sienna, Marco Ricci, died in the crash. He was found dead under the fuselage of his plane about 2 kilometers offshore, according to Teramo’s fire department. His body was recovered by divers who first used an air balloon to resurface the plane, before pulling the light aircraft ashore.

An investigation has been opened into the crash, the Flight Safety Agency (ANSV) , deputy prosecutor of Teramo, Stefano Giovagnoni announced, adding that the surviving pilot is now a suspect in a manslaughter case.
