The base's parking lot was full, so he parked on the missile range! The missile range???

He might missed the "NO PARKING" sign!

On the other hand, it was free parking...at your own risk.

How do you explain to the rental agency that their vehicle was shot up by an F-16?

Really, Would've been much more spectacular if he fired an AGM-65 at them

I'm surprised the vehicle didn't explode into a million pieces either way

I'm wondering what the hell they were doing so close to the live-fire range.

It's a perfect example of "Doing STUPID in the NO STUPID ZONE".

5 klicks is the blink of an eye to a fast moving jet....

Reminds me of how a similar accident ocurred with another pilot accidentally strafing a school someplace on the East Coast (thankfully it was empty).

When I was EOD out at Hill, we had a similar situation.

An A-10 was SUPPOSED to be doing a dry run on this target. We were transiting the area with range clearance. Suddenly we became aware that the run was hot.

A GAU-8, even with training rounds, can ruin your day real fast.

Never saw the fat team chiefs unass a vehicle quite so fast before. :rotfl:

Of course this is only funny because no one got hurt. Believe me, we were not laughing at the time.

I didnt read
I'm at work and have about 5-7 windows open at the same time, yeah mutli tasking isnt really healthy

but now after I red it...

*lucky it was just a rental car
*lucky the injuries arent serious
*lucky the pilot had bad aim
*unlucky is the one is going to hang for this

:hmm: now if I rent a car over there...I think I should ask if getting shot by a F-16 is included with the insurance :p
