Gr.Viper 131 Posted July 22, 2012 http://www.japantoday.com/category/national/view/u-s-f-16-crashes-into-sea-off-hokkaido The pilot is wet, but waiting to be rescued, so it qualifies as a good landing, I guess. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Gr.Viper 131 Posted July 23, 2012 YGBSM, another F-16 in the same area, presumably from the same base and on a similar route http://www.rt.com/news/f-16-crash-kuril-islands-814/ Another wet but rescued plot. Is there something in the air there? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JediMaster 451 Posted July 23, 2012 Well, oxygen IN the air won't cause planes to crash, although the LACK of it would. However, birds IN the air could. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
