The National Transportation Safety Board says a deadly crash at EAA Air Venture last summer was partly due to a breakdown in communications between pilots.
Gerald S. Beck, 58, of North Dakota was killed in the plane crash last July at the experimental air show near Oshkosh as he was attempting to land.
One war plane came down too close on top of another, clipping its tail and causing it to flip over.
The other pilot did not have serious injuries.
The NTSB says the pilots' limited visibility also contributed to the crash
