Oh, somehow I thought the crash was out over the ocean.

“Bill her for it.”

Not her fault, they’re under orders from the White House to up the number of women pilots.

“Per one of my Telegram channels, this was supposed to be a false flag. The pilot was instructed to attack an American city, but refused at the last second and ejected.”

Damn, so blame Russia. Sadly, that is about the only thing that makes any sense here.

[dynachrome]

“why didn’t the other pilot follow the aircraft?”

I guess the protocol is to stay with the ejected pilot. (seen on one of the other threads.)

[Retain Mike]

Now that certainly makes sense.

“F-35 would be a dumb choice to do that.”

I’ve heard white supremacists’ have lots of them. /s

Very strange when you consider that the Chinese balloon was shot down near the coastal Carolina.

On 17 September 2023, a pilot ejected from his F-35B over North Charleston, South Carolina following a “mishap” during a training flight out of MCAS Beaufort. While the pilot was unharmed, the fighter was lost for an extended period of time.[464][465] An announcement that the fighter’s wreckage was found was made in the evening of 18 September, 2023.[466]

Don’t worry. Kevin McCarthy will personally get to the bottom of this. With Ken Buck.

Welcome, funny stuff isn’t it ? We lost that Brave Sled Driver not too long ago, Heart Attack after on of His lectures.

Fly with the Angels Sir.

That was epic.

I do find this whole episode strange, and I do not really believe the official explanation.

[Spacetrucker]

Ahahahaha!🤣🤣🤣 id have loved to hear that live 😁

[M. Thatcher]

the fighter was lost for an extended period of time

Obviously untrue, or commercial flights in the area would have been grounded.

Conclusion: it was never "lost."

During a perusal of SR-71 video on youtube I happened across a story about an SR-71 buzzing the tower at SAC/Metro. Funny as hell 🤣

Good to know F-35s will be part of the AR-15 gun buyback program. I guess the F-15s are too outdated.

About 5 to 7 miles at a steady walking pace.
