I hope this isn't a bad sign for the state which these older F/A-18s are in. It does, however, sound like a technical problem on the surface of it. At least the pilots are safe. |
I saw a pic of the crash site compared to the runway. Whatever happened occurred just after takeoff. I agree that it was a major technical failure, but I won't speculate further. Probably just another freak accident.
