Last month, a Marine Corps KC-130J refueling aircraft and an F-35B Joint Strike Fighter collided during an air-to-air refueling mission in California, causing the stealth jet to crash. All nine personnel -- one in the F-35B and eight in the KC-130J tanker -- were found safe after that mishap.

In August, two Navy pilots and two crewmembers safely bailed out of an E-2C Hawkeye aircraft before it crashed in Virginia during a training flight.

All absolutely unrelated. Do these guys get paid by the word when they write their articles?

China Lake is out in a big desert. Doubt the “brush fire” amounted to much vegetation loss.

I always remember China Lake from a story from my grandfather who was out there 50 years ago because he was looking for new places to fish and followed the signs. Eventually got to a guardport where a soldier kindly let him know its no lake and he will need to turn around.

All routine trading flights end in crashes?

We need to reevaluate this.

We know the MSM will NOT report this story since it includes “China.”
