John McCain crashed five US Navy planes, and that's on the record. Moreover, he was involved in, if not instrumental to, the worst accident ever onboard a US Navy aircraft carrier -- the USS Forrestal fire.

In fairness, the North Vietnamese has something to do with the fifth one and a missile went off on another airplane that took out the fourth one.

He was one of the flight instructors at Meridian when I was there in flight training. He was known even then as a marginal pilot, but his dad was CINCPAC so what he was marginal. The Forrestal should have labeled him a mass murderer, but his dad was CINCPAC so what he killed a bunch of sailors.
