Three people have died and scores are injured after an airplane crashed near a grandstand at an air race near Reno, Nevada, say medical officials.

The vintage World War II-era P-51 Mustang crashed at about 1630 local time (2330 GMT) at the National Championship Air Races.

The crash looked nasty, literally a vertical dive.

Nasty! Why so close to the crowd?!

That's what I thought especially with all those vintage planes.
