I trained with Arab pilots at Flight Safety Int'l in Florida. They are complete idiots. They react very poorly in crisis management situations and they fail to recognize the ten poor decisions as they individually took place which lead up to the crisis.

I once watched one crash a plane because the tower advised "Caution, turtles on runway". He had no idea what a turtle was and could not process this information at a critical phase of flight (landing). I watched another radio in for being lost and the controller just told him to radio in when he saw a coastline. He did and the controller told him to keep the coastline out his left window and report the first city he saw along the water's edge. He flew around Lake Okeechobee six times until he ran out of fuel.

They don't know about the ejection seat? Something is wrong here. The seat is sturdy enough to remain identifiable at a crash site. If it isn't there, it's just as unique by it's absence. The F-16 enjoys a good ejection success rate.

I'm guessing the pilot rode it in. Cause: "Controlled flight into terrain".
