I love you, you know.
Damn, they had the plane flying right over people. Haven’t been to an airshow in decades but I thought it was like an airstrip with stands for the crowd on either side.

shoulda practiced...
I watched some YouTube videos there's some trash ass pilots that show up there, I’d be afraid to fly in
Breh the B-17 is a WWII plane, like the P-63 that hit it. You have to take this LThe B52 has propeller engines as can be clearly seen in the video while the B17 has jet engines as shown in the pic you posted.

B-52 is still in service since the 50s
I’m thinking the sameIt's possible the pilot in the Bell P-63 Kingcobra didn't see it until it was too late, as he was higher than the bomber when he began to decend and bank towards the plane. When he did that, he probably didn't know the bomber was now in front of him and then it was too late to avoid; just bad situational awareness.
I guess this is what the cockpit looked like.
I‘m addicted to those crash study shows. There was one a few months ago where two planes collided just like this. The lower plane was in the higher plane’s blind spot.

I work in aviation and have to cover air shows somewhat frequently.
Outside of the usual ex military and old rich recreational fliers, you have rednecks, drunks, 18 year olds and neo nazis flying.
The type of people you see with their own whole ass airplane will make you be like

You definitely didn't do anything that required critical thinking

Assuming he even served, he was either Security Forces, Services, Medical, or CE (not EM or EOD).
His AFSC wasn't anything that began with a 1 or 2. IYKYK.
Also since these are WW2 Airplanes, I bet they don't have the modern stuff like Proximity Alarms; maybe just to keep them nostalgic.

Screwed up... till tha casket drops!!
this is the biggest loss to me, there's only like a half dozen airworthy examples of each of those planes. even human life's a renewable resource but there's never gonna be another b-17 or p-63.

Pilots are always told to keep their heads up eyes out the window. Especially the non PIC.
From this angle it looks like he went into a 25 or 30 degree bank and lost visual of the other plane.
Somebody was talking about a stall...but the angle of attack was way too low and his speed was good. So I dunno.
Another possibility is a flight control jam.
