E-2 & C-2 are both death traps. Nobody has parachutes. Flight controls all hydraulic. Turbo props. Not aware of any successful E-2 Ditching either.
Prayers up for all the USS Reagan. Especially Ms. Lindsey
I didn’t see the name...who is Ms. Lindsey? Did you see it somewhere else?
I was surprised that eight people survived, so I surmise there was some well executed survival procedures involved there, if not a degree of luck...
