A pilot has died after his plane spiralled out of control and crashed at an air show in South Africa.
The crash happened at the West Coast Air Show in Saldanha, a town about 70 miles (110 km) north of Cape Town, on Saturday.
Video footage shows the plane spinning mid-air before plummeting to the ground.
In a statement shared on social media, organisers of the show named the pilot as James O'Connell.
"It is with profound sadness that the organisers of the West Coast Airshow confirm a fatal accident involving James O'Connell, a highly skilled and respected test pilot from South Africa," the statement said.
"Mr O'Connell was performing a routine display intended to demonstrate the capabilities of the Impala Mark 1 - a beloved warbird with deep historical significance for many South Africans. It was especially a huge moment because the Impala has not been seen performing at air shows for many years.
"The manoeuvres were being executed as part of the official air show programme, witnessed by thousands of spectators.
"Eyewitness accounts report that the aircraft appeared to be under control during most of the display. However, during one of the final manoeuvres, the aircraft experienced a sudden loss of altitude and entered a steep dive before making contact with the ground."

Organisers said there was no sign the pilot made an attempt to eject.
