Well, let’s give them some time. It may be a career, maybe not. Unexpected things do happen that can bite even a good pilot doing all the right things.

Careful!

Your post is diametrically opposed to the “guilty before proven innocent” philosophy so prevalent on this page and in law enforcement agencies.

Prepare to be flamed

” It may be a career, maybe not.”

If this guy is flying an F35 he’s several cuts above the rest already. Stuff happens.

IMHO, the KC-130J pilot should be awarded an Air Medal, as a minimum, or possibly a Distinguished Flying Cross.

Thanks for the good, sensible post.

I watch lots of the show “Air Disasters”. Accidents are typically human error but a few left me stuned at that $hit happens scenario.

It will be interesting to see the final report in this case. I will refrain from speculation until then.

Very glad all service members survived.
