“It might turn out to be a matter of pilot error”

I sure hope the pilot wasn’t buzzing the family farm...

The T-39 is used for both visual and radar low level navigation training for the Student Naval Flight Officers (SNFOs). Also used for higher altitude air-to-air intercept and cross-country navigation. Often flying close to the ground, so if an emergency occurs, there is not much time to react.
