I know I've passed that ANG sign many times when headed to/from RDU.

FA-18 is Navy, not Air Force.
Local news reports two FA-18s were taking off. I don't know where they were in from. The second one couldn't get off and the pilot punched out while rolling down the runway.

You're right...F-15s based in Goldston. Part of the Camp LeJeune? or just passing through?

FOX just aired a bit of video.
The aircraft seemed to be intact but fires were burning.

Main thing is that the pilot got out OK.
