Another crash?
What’s that, the fifth one in the past month?

For some reason this reminds me of a statement in a biography of Adolph Galland. He said regarding the Battle of Britain, that all pilots of single engine planes do not like flying over water.

The base is located 15 miles south of Phoenix.

I don't think so.

the aircraft departed the prepared surface

I'm a pilot, but not quite sure what that means. Can someone translate?

F-16 crashes near Lake Havasu, Arizona, pilot in good condition - F16, not so much.

Longest runway is 783 feet. Probably not enough? What’s missing was the reason for this attempted landing. Didn’t say it was an emergency landing.

The plane crashed at the end of the runway at Lake Havasu City international (locals joke) airport ... and about 3 miles from my home. Various military aircraft fly over the lake a lot.
