“We had four good parachutes,” an air shower announcer told the crowd present at the incident. “The crews were able to eject. They’re located one mile south of where the smoke is. The parachutes came down.”

"Crash fire rescue and various other emergency services are on their way to the pilots and crew. There were four good parachutes. That is always a positive in our world. If you are so inclined to take the time now to say a prayer," and announcer said in a follow-up statement. Later, he said that all four pilots were "found safe."

The planes appeared to collide together in the sky and then come crashing down as there were several parachutes deployed around the planes. The jets then came crashing down, creating a fireball and plume of smoke when they hit the ground. The emergency response on the scene included a helicopter.

This is the first time in eight years that the Mountain Home Air Force Base has put together the air show. The base was locked down following the midair collision.

A Facebook post from the Mountain Air Force Base Gunfighters stated: "An aircraft incident has occurred at Mountain Home Air Force Base during the Gunfighter Skies Air Show two miles northwest of the base. Emergency responders are on the scene, an investigation is underway and more details will be released as they become available."
