Maryland ping (Clinton, MD from the news)
Fox Snooze alert said both pilots ejected.
Praying for all.
A small jet has crashed about two miles south of Joint Base Andrews, a fire official said about 9:30 a.m. Wednesday.
The pilot ejected from the plane using a parachute and first responders have located that pilot. That persons’s condition is unknown.
The aircraft is an F-16, NBC News’ Tom Costello confirmed.
The plane appears to have gone down in a wooded area in the 4200 block of Steed Road in Clinton, Maryland. Some roads are closed in the area.

Sad news. Could be fighter plane but most likely at least a small passenger jet.

Maybe there’s something to the reports that Navy pilots are refusing to fly aircraft they deem unsafe. Recent reports of non airworthy aircraft and other declining military equipment may grow some wings with obama gone after decimating the military.
