Lexx_Luthor 57 Posted November 17, 2012 Something to watch. The number of Rappers is very similar to the number of B-58s made -- and that was a rather limited program. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JediMaster 451 Posted November 17, 2012 If the guy ejected in time, it's probably NOT oxygen-related. That said, there are dozens of reasons a plane can be lost. Technical, pilot error, and just plain bad luck (bird strikes, fuel contamination, etc). 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
