It was not immediately clear why the two jets collided....

Perhaps they got too close.

It's not the fall that kills you, no matter what altitude you fall from. It's the sudden stop at the end of the fall, every time.

What is going on with our military?!?

First, we had way too many helicopter accidents; now we are colliding jets in midair?!?

Maybe they should not take everyone that wants to fly a plane, and maybe we should be taking the women out of the military! The abilityy seems to have plummeted. How I wish we had the pilots that we had in the past; they seemed vastly more competent.
