US F-15 crashes in Mideast, crew ejects safely

(May 3rd, 2012 @ 5:53am)

DUBAI, United Arab Emirates (AP) - The U.S. Air Force says one of its F-15E fighter jets has crashed on a routine training mission in the Middle East. Both crew members ejected safely.

The Air Force says only that the crash happened late Thursday morning in southwest Asia, a broad term that includes the Persian Gulf region.

It says rescuers made their way to the scene of the crash, and the cause of the accident is being investigated.

Air Force spokesman Maj. James Bressendorff was unable to say where exactly the crash occurred or provide further details.

The F-15 entered service in the 1970s. The Air Force got its first F-15E Strike Eagle version of the fighter in 1988.

India's 'flying coffins' have claimed over 200 lives

Wednesday, May 02, 2012

NEW DELHI - Dubbed "flying coffins" or "widow makers" in the air force, India's ageing collection of Soviet-era MiGs have long been unpopular with airforce pilots. New figures unveiled Wednesday show why.

India's Defence Minister A.K. Antony said there had been 482 accidents in the last 30 years, resulting in the deaths of 171 pilots and 39 civilians. The MiG fleet is now 873-strong.

New Delhi's acquisitions began in 1966 with MiG-21 interceptors, and the next two decades saw the induction of the high-speed MiG 25, ground-attack MiG 27 and the fourth-generation MiG-29 fighter jets into the Indian Air Force.

Experts say a majority of the accidents involved India's single-engined MiG-21s, a combat aeroplane which has been flown by some 50 countries since it was developed by then Soviet Union in the 1950s.

"A total of 171 pilots, 39 civilians, eight service personnel and one aircrew lost their lives in these accidents," the defence minister told parliament, referring to the period from 1971-1972 to April 19 this year.

The accidents were blamed on "human error and technical defects".

Antony in February said that the Indian Air Force would start phasing out its mainstay MiG-21s, comprising 40 per cent of its total fleet, beginning 2014.

Recurring crashes involving the single-engine MiG-21 inspired Bollywood film "Rang De Basanti" (Color It Saffron) in 2006 and sparked a spirited campaign in 2003 by relatives of a killed pilot for the scrapping of the war jets.

India plans to replace its MiGs with 123 modern aircraft in a deal worth US$12 billion (S$15 billion). France's Dassault Aviation in January won the right to enter exclusive negotiations to sell its Rafale planes.

Price negotiations are currently under way between the French firm and India.

Saudi fighter F-15 crashes, pilot survives
Akbar Ponani | Apr 30, 2012, 01.50AM IST

JEDDAH: A Saudi fighter F15 aircraft crashed during a training mission in Tabuk, in northwestern region of Saudi Arabia, an official source said on Sunday.

The official Saudi News Agency (WAS) quoted the Saudi source in the defence ministry added that the incident occurred Saturday night and that the pilot could eject safe.

In last mid-January too, Saudi fighter F15 had collided with French Mirage during joint exercise and both pilots had survived then.

Notably, an aircraft model of "Hawk" had crashed during a training mission in the same area in December last year.

Doden bij straaljagercrash Pakistan
Toegevoegd: donderdag 17 mei 2012, 09:49

In het noorden van Pakistan zijn twee straaljagers op elkaar gebotst. De vier bemanningsleden zijn omgekomen. Een van de straaljagers kwam in een woonwijk terecht. Daar raakten zeker twee mensen gewond. Het andere toestel stortte neer in een weiland.

De straaljagers waren opgestegen van een luchtmachtbasis zo'n 100 kilometer van Peshawar. Ooggetuigen zagen de vliegtuigen overkomen, elkaar raken en neerkomen.

Technische problemen
De Pakistaanse luchtmacht heeft een slechte reputatie. Het ongeluk vandaag is het tweede met straaljagers deze week en het zesde in de afgelopen zeven maanden. Volgens de luchtmacht komt dat door technische problemen met de vliegtuigen.

ISLAMABAD: Two Pakistan Air Force light aircraft collided mid-air on Thursday, killing four pilots on a routine training mission northwest of Islamabad, police said.

It was the sixth Pakistan Air Force crash in seven months and the second in a week, raising concerns over the safety of its largely Chinese and locally made fleet.

The cause of the accident was not immediately clear.

One of the two-seater propeller Mushshak planes crashed on a house, injuring a girl and an elderly man, and the second fell in nearby fields in the Rashkai area, 160 kilometres (100 miles) northwest of the capital.

"Two Pakistan Air Force trainer aircraft collided mid-air. Four pilots were killed, two were trainee pilots and two were instructors," district police officer Mohammad Hussain said.

"One of the aircraft crashed over a house, injuring a girl and an elderly man, and the second plane crashed in the fields." Another police official, Hayatullah, who uses only one name, confirmed the casualties.

Last Friday, a fighter jet crashed near the southwestern town of Sonmiani but the pilot managed to eject safely.

The Pakistan Air Force has a fleet of Chinese aircraft including F-7PGs and A-5s, plus US-built F-16s and French Mirages. It recently acquired medium-tech JF-17, or Thunder jets, manufactured jointly by China and Pakistan.

Fighter jet crashes in Balochistan, no casualties

AFP | 4 hours ago

KARACHI: A Pakistani fighter jet crashed in the south of the country Tuesday while on routine training but the pilot ejected safely and there were no casualties on the ground, an air force official said.

The French-built Mirage jet took off from the Pakistan Air Force's Masroor Base in Karachi and crashed near the town of Uthal in southwestern Balochistan province, air force spokesman Squadron Leader Mohammad Nadeem told AFP.

Uthal is around 60 kilometres west of Karachi.

"The pilot ejected successfully and safely," the spokesman said, adding the cause of the accident would be determined after an investigation.

No loss of civilian life or property was reported on ground, he said.

It was the second Mirage aircraft crash in the region in a month. A Mirage-V crashed on May 11 while its pilot ejected safely as well.

The Pakistan Air Force has a fleet of Chinese aircraft including F-7PGs and A-5s, plus US-built F-16s and French Mirages. It recently acquired JF-17s Thunder jets, manufactured jointly by China and Pakistan.

Su-25 Fighter Jet Crashes in Belarus

MINSK, June 12 (RIA Novosti)

A Soviet-era fighter jet crashed in Belarus on Tuesday, killing the man piloting the aircraft, the country's Defense Ministry said.

The pilot, Nikolai Gridnyov, lost control of the jet when doing exercises in low-altitude flight, the ministry said, local news agency BELTA reported.

Ground control ordered the pilot to eject from the plane, but he stayed in order to prevent the machine from crashing into a neighboring village, sacrificing his life to make the jet crash two kilometers away from the village, the report said.

The ministry did not elaborate on the causes of the crash. Belarusian Air Force has more than 70 Su-25s, which were developed in the 1970s.

Air Force aerobatic jet crashes in South Korea

HOENGSEONG, South Korea, Nov. 15 (Yonhap) -- An Air Force aerobatic jet crashed in northeastern South Korea on Thursday, killing its lone pilot and sparking a brush fire, police said.

The T-50B plane went down at 10:28 a.m. on a mountain in Hoengseong, about 90 kilometers east of Seoul, and its pilot, identified only as Capt. Kim, 32, is believed dead, officials said.

A parachute was found hanging from a tree about 70 meters from the scene, but the pilot was believed to have failed to eject, officials said.

It was one of two planes that took off from an air base in nearby Wonju at 10:23 a.m. Witnesses in the area said the two jets flew in parallel before one of them went down in flames.

The crash also sparked a fire at the scene and firefighters are trying to get the blaze under control.

The plane belonged to the Air Force aerobatic team, known as "Black Eagles." The T-50B, which derives from the T-50 trainer jet, is designed exclusively for air shows. It is the first time the model has crashed.

The cause of the crash is not yet known.

Fighter jet crashes near Florida Air Force base

TYNDALL AIR FORCE BASE, Fla. (AP) — An Air Force F-22 Raptor fighter jet crashed near a Florida Panhandle highway Thursday, but the pilot was able to eject safely and there were no injuries on the ground, the military said.

The single-seat stealth fighter, part of a program that has been plagued with problems, went down Thursday afternoon near Tyndall Air Force Base, just south of Panama City on The Gulf of Mexico. The pilot received medical treatment and a section of Highway 98 that runs through the base was closed as rescuers responded.

The crash was on Tyndall land and no one on the ground was hurt, said Air Force Sgt. Rachelle Elsea, a spokeswoman for the base where F-22 pilots train.

The Air Force said the plane went down in a wooded area near the highway.

The cause of the crash isn't clear, but the Air Force has been trying to address problems with the $190 million aircraft for several years. In 2008, pilots began reporting a sharp increase in hypoxia-like problems, forcing the Air Force to finally acknowledge concerns about the F-22's oxygen supply system. Two years later, the oxygen system contributed to a fatal crash. Though pilot error ultimately was deemed to be the cause, the fleet was grounded for four months in 2011.

New restrictions were imposed in May, after two F-22 pilots went on the CBS program "60 Minutes" to express their continued misgivings. The Air Force has said the F-22 is safe to fly — a dozen of the jets began a six-month deployment to Japan in July — but flight restrictions that remain in place will keep it out of the high-altitude situations where pilots' breathing is under the most stress.

Internal documents and emails obtained by The Associated Press earlier this year show Air Force experts actually proposed a range of solutions by 2005, including adjustments to the flow of oxygen into pilot's masks. But that key recommendation was rejected by military officials reluctant to add costs to a program that was already well over budget.

Safety paramount as F-22 investigation continues

Published: Mon November 19th, 2012 via: AFNS

TYNDALL AIR FORCE BASE, Fla. (AFNS) -- The pilot of a F-22 Raptor, assigned to the 43rd Fighter Squadron, safely ejected as the jet crashed Nov. 15 around 3:30 p.m. on Tyndall Air Force Base, Fla., one-quarter mile east of the drone runway.

Despite initial media speculation, there are no indications that point to the life support system leading to this incident or playing any role in this crash. A thorough investigation is being conducted in accordance with standard Air Force and Department of Defense policy. The pilot was conducting a routine training mission when first responders were alerted of a problem via an in-flight emergency call and were on scene fighting the fire within two minutes of the incident.

"Our first responders reacted quickly and professionally due to the extensive training we conduct here at Tyndall," said Col. David Graff, 325th Fighter Wing commander. "In addition, the pilot received top-notch care from our medical group."

A safety team here began interviewing witnesses, maintainers and other individuals immediately after the incident.

"Right now, our number one priority is the safety of our Airmen and all involved as we secure the scene of the incident," Graff said.

The first step taken in the securing process was a sweep by explosive ordnance disposal Airmen for any parts of the aircraft that may be explosive.

Follow-on steps include addressing environmental and biological hazards. Most modern aircraft are made of composite fibers, which can create health concerns for people on the scene when the plane catches fire.

First responders at Tyndall AFB are well trained and equipped to respond to aircraft crashes and minimize their effects on surrounding areas, Graff said. Throughout the initial and continued responses all personnel have worn the appropriate protective gear, and they will continue to do so until the immediate site of the crash is deemed safe.

While safety is the primary concern, preserving the accident scene is a critical part of the investigation. All evidence will be photographed and tagged to preserve all evidence for the official safety investigation board members.

Crashes raise concern about Pakistani air force

By By SEBASTIAN ABBOT

11/12/12

ISLAMABAD (AP) — Over a dozen Pakistani air force planes have crashed in roughly the past 18 months, raising concerns about the health of an aging fleet that officials are struggling to upgrade because of a lack of funds.

A significant number of the air force's combat aircraft are nearly half a century old and have been called on in recent years to help the army fight a domestic Taliban insurgency that has killed thousands of people. This has added to the strain on a force that has historically focused on countering the threat from Pakistan's neighbor and archenemy, India.

Pakistan has turned to the U.S. and China for help in modernizing its air force, but economic woes have strained the government's budget, even for the country's powerful military. Tension with the U.S. over a host of issues, including the covert raid that killed Osama bin Laden last year, also hasn't helped.

Shahzad Chaudhry, a former senior Pakistani air force officer, said the number of planes that have crashed "would be worrying for any air force."

"If I were air force chief, I certainly wouldn't want to see over a dozen airplanes being lost," said Chaudhry. "Obviously we need to bring those numbers down."

At least 13 planes have crashed since May 2011, many because of technical problems, according to a record maintained by The Associated Press. The air force did not respond to request for comment on the crashes.

The most recent accident occurred on Nov. 22, when a Dassault Mirage fighter jet crashed on a routine night training mission in central Punjab province, killing the pilot. The air force said at the time that it was investigating the cause of the crash, but eyewitnesses said the plane caught fire before it fell out of the sky.

Nearly half the planes that have crashed were decades-old Mirage fighters. They make up at least a quarter of the force's fleet of about 400 combat aircraft, according to the website GlobalSecurity.org. Many were built nearly 50 years ago and acquired from foreign militaries that had already retired them.

"We bought them at almost throw-away prices, brought them over, overhauled them and continue to operate them," said former Pakistani air force chief Tanvir Mahmood. "This was our compulsion because of the financial constraints that we had."

Chaudhry, the former senior air force officer, said the Mirage was a "very sturdy platform" that shouldn't fail easily.

"But when you have the intensity of an operational combat environment, problems tend to be there," said Chaudhry.

The crashes raise questions not only about the age of the aircraft, but also flight maintenance practices, said Sajad Haider, a celebrated former air force pilot who has written a book about the service.

Other planes that have gone down include the Chengdu F-7 fighter jet bought from China, the JF-17 Thunder fighter jet jointly developed with China and Pakistan's Mushshak trainer, a propeller plane.

The most advanced fighter jet operated by the Pakistani air force is the F-16 Fighting Falcon, over 60 of which were purchased in various batches from the U.S. over the past three decades.

U.S. military support came to a halt in the 1990s because of sanctions imposed on Pakistan over its nuclear program, but resumed in 2001 when Washington needed Islamabad's support to fight al-Qaida and the Taliban in Afghanistan. Military assistance largely dried up once again over the past two years because of renewed tensions between the two countries, although the U.S. did deliver more than a dozen new F-16s purchased by Pakistan.

One of the reasons Pakistan turned to China for help with its air force was the country's troubles with the U.S.

The government has purchased over 100 F-7 fighter jets from China, mostly in the 1980s, and has reportedly ordered more advanced FC-20 fighter jets in recent years. Pakistan is also domestically producing the JF-17 fighter jet, jointly developed with China, but it has not yet entered full service.

"The JF-17 program was pushed through during my tenure of office because we knew we couldn't live with these old Mirages and some of our old Chinese planes for too long," said Mahmood, who served as air force chief from 2006 to 2009.

The current head of the air force, Tahir Rafique Butt, told Pakistan's Senate defense committee at the end of November that the force was struggling to modernize its equipment and technology because of a shortage of funds, said the head of the committee, Mushahid Hussain.

While Pakistani military spending makes up about 20 percent of the government's budget, the air force is lower down the totem pole than the powerful army.

Hussain said the air force was doing the best with what it has, but the recent spate of crashes "was linked to use of technology that is fast becoming outmoded and obsolete."

"That reinforces the argument the air force was making to us about a lack of resources," said Hussain.

U.S. F-16 fighter based in Italy may have crashed in Adriatic

ROME | Mon Jan 28, 2013

(Reuters) - A U.S. F-16 fighter jet may have crashed on Monday during a training exercise over the Adriatic Sea and the U.S. Air Force said the status of its Italy-based pilot was unknown.

Search efforts, aided by Italy's Coast Guard, were under way and the Air Force declined to offer many details.

It said only that it "lost contact" with the F-16 at about 8 p.m. local (2100 GMT) - language often used to describe a possible crash, although Air Force officials declined to speculate about the incident.

"The aircraft was performing a training mission over the Adriatic Sea with one person on board. The pilot's condition is unknown at this time," the Air Force said in a statement.

Italy's Coast Guard confirmed it was helping in the search-and-rescue effort.

A spokeswoman at Aviano Air Base in northern Italy said more information would released as it became available.

Debris of F-16 missing in Italy believed found, search focuses on spot

RAVENNA, Italy | Tue Jan 29, 2013

(Reuters) - Italian Coast Guard divers searching for a missing American F-16 and its pilot were focusing on Tuesday on waters where a fishing boat found debris believed to belong to the jet, a Coast Guard official said.

The debris, including fragments of carbon steel, was found floating in the northern Adriatic overnight, Rear Admiral Francesco Saverio Ferrara said. The U.S. Air Force said in a statement on Tuesday it was thought to be wreckage from the missing aircraft.

"We hope to find out more during the day so we can have a more complete picture of what happened," Ferrara said.

The missing jet took off from Aviano Air Base on a training exercise on Monday evening, and the control tower lost contact with the plane at about 2 p.m. ET.

Search-and-rescue operations are being conducted by sea from the port of Ravenna, and Air Force planes from Aviano are spearheading the search from above, Ferrara said.

Snow and rain hampered the operation overnight, and on Tuesday fog was hampering visibility, the Coast Guard said.

Aviano is the base for the U.S. Air Force's 31st Fighter Wing. The Air Force said a board of officers would investigate the incident.

"Wing leadership remains hopeful that we will safely rescue our pilot," an Air Force statement said.

Eurofighter crashes at Spain's Moron base near Seville

A pilot has died after his Eurofighter jet crashed at a military base in southern Spain, defence officials say.

"A Eurofighter has crashed on landing on the runway of the Moron base", a Spanish defence ministry spokeswoman told the AFP news agency.

The accident took place at around 14:00 local time (12:00 GMT) at the facility, 56km (35 miles) south-east of Seville.

The base is shared by Spain and the US Air Force, but only Spain operates the Eurofighter jet.

Local media say the aircraft smashed in to the ground while attempting to land.

Images posted on social media showed black smoke rising from the vicinity of the air base.

F-15C crashes over Shenandoah Valley

Published August 27, 2014

BARNES AIR NATIONAL GUARD BASE, Mass. (AFNS) --  At approximately 9:05 a.m. today the 104th Fighter Wing lost radio contact with an F-15C aircraft during a cross country mission over the Shenandoah Valley Virginia. 

The pilot flying the F-15C made a report of an inflight emergency prior to radio contact being lost.  Subsequently there were reports of dark smoke being seen around the aircrafts last known whereabouts.   Local law enforcement arrived on scene and confirmed the aircraft crashed.

"Information on this incident is developing rapidly and we are not going to speculate on what occurred or the status of the pilot", said Col James Keefe, 104th Fighter Wing Commander.  "We are hopeful that the pilot is ok, and the pilot will be in our thoughts and prayers as the events of this incident unfold."

The F-15C aircraft was in route to receive a system upgrade, and there were no munitions on the aircraft during this cross-country trip.   

At this point the status of the pilot is not confirmed.

Two Navy F/A-18 Hornets crash over western Pacific Ocean

Published September 12, 2014

DEVELOPING: Navy officials have rescued one pilot and are searching for another after two F/A-18 Hornets crashed in the western Pacific Ocean.

Initial reports indicate that the aircraft were assigned to Strike Fighter Squadron 94 and Strike Fighter Squadron 113. One pilot was quickly located and returned to the USS Carl Vinson to receive medical attention. Search efforts are ongoing for the second pilot, according to a Navy release.

The cause of the incident remains under investigation.

The search for the second pilot includes guided-missile cruiser USS Bunker Hill and guided-missile destroyer USS Gridley, as well as helicopters assigned to Helicopter Sea Combat Squadron 15 and Helicopter Maritime Strike Squadron.

The two aircraft, which cost roughly $57 million apiece, have not been recovered.

Tien doden door crash F-16 in Spanje

ALBACETE -
Een crash van een Griekse F-16 heeft maandag in Spanje twee piloten en acht andere mensen het leven gekost.  Dertien mensen raakten gewond, van wie zeven ernstig. De nationaliteit van de slachtoffers is nog niet bekendgemaakt.
Dat meldden Spaanse media. Het ongeluk gebeurde rond 15.30 uur op een militaire basis in de plaats Albacete. Daar worden NAVO-piloten opgeleid.
De F-16 was aan het opstijgen, maar hij zou niet snel genoeg zijn gestegen. Het toestel botste tegen geparkeerde vliegtuigen aan. Er ontstond vervolgens een grote brand.
Volgens het Nederlandse ministerie van Defensie worden er geen Nederlandse piloten opgeleid op de basis Los Llanos in Albacete.

Controls failure caused F-16 crash

Engine malfunction alone does not explain why Greek plane veered right after takeoff

Crashed F-16 fighter fell in "worst possible place," says military

Miguel González Madrid 2 FEB 2015

A controls failure was behind the crash of a Greek F-16 fighter jet that killed 11 and injured 20 at a Spanish airbase last Monday, according to first investigations.

An engine failure alone could not have been enough to cause the tragedy at Los Llanos base in Albacete, which operates as a NATO training center to improve joint air operations.

Sources familiar with the investigation said that even if the aircraft's single engine malfunctioned on takeoff, the F-16 should have normally continued in a straight line and the pilots would have been able to control where their plane crashed.


The fighter jet did a 45-degree right turn and headed straight for the hangar

Instead, the fighter jet veered 45-degrees right and headed straight for the hangar where Italian and French aircraft loaded with fuel were waiting to take part in a routine training exercise. As well as those planes' pilots, ground personnel were also in the area.

The F-16 barely rose a few meters off the ground and never pulled up its landing gear. Both Greek pilots on board ejected before crashing, but because by then the aircraft had tipped sideways, they were sent straight against the ground. Their bodies were found outside the hangar.

The nine other casualties were French military personnel.


The Albacete base had all necessary safety measures in place and the affected countries did not raise questions

While the F-16's black boxes are analyzed, investigators have already determined that the airplane did not hit the parked jets directly, but instead struck the ground a few meters away, burst into flames, and skidded into the area where two Italian AMX jets and two French Alfa Jets and one Mirage were on standby.

The F-16 was the fourth aircraft to take off as part of a training exercise involving nearly 30 planes from seven NATO member states.

Sources consulted by EL PAÍS insisted that all necessary safety measures were in place at the Albacete base. None of the affected countries have raised any questions regarding safety at the site, and the incident is being regarded as a chain of unfortunate events.

Russisch gevechtsvliegtuig neergestort

Een Russische straaljager is in het zuiden van Rusland neergestort. Het lot van de twee inzittenden is onduidelijk. Dat heeft het Russische ministerie van defensie woensdag gezegd.

De Su-24 bommenwerper crashte tijdens terugkeer van een trainingsmissie naar de luchtmachtbasis in de zuidelijke regio Volgograd. Er is een zoekoperatie ingesteld om de bemanningsleden te vinden, liet het ministerie weten.

In afwachting van een onderzoek naar de crash houdt de Russische luchtmacht zijn Su-24's voorlopig aan de grond.

Straaljager Zwitserse luchtmacht gevonden

Een F-18 van de Zwitserse luchtmacht die sinds maandag spoorloos was, is gelokaliseerd. De straaljager is neergestort gevonden in het bergachtig gebied rond de Sustenpass, liet het leger weten.

De waarneming werd door een helikopter gedaan. De piloot is nog niet aangetroffen. Vanwege de wind hebben helikopters nog geen hulpverleners kunnen afzetten op het moeilijk begaanbare terrein.

Het toestel was maandag aan het eind van de middag boven het centraal gelegen plaatsje Susten verdwenen. Zoekacties werden eerst bemoeilijkt door de duisternis en dinsdagochtend door het weer.

In 2013 stortte eenzelfde soort straaljager van de Zwitserse luchtmacht neer. Eerder dit jaar stortte een F-5 van een stuntteam van de Zwitserse luchtmacht neer in Friesland, bij het plaatsje Beetgum. Het stuntteam was in Nederland voor een demonstratievlucht tijdens de Luchtmachtdagen.

RCAF pilot killed in CF-18 crash near Cold Lake, Alberta
1 hour ago - From the section US & Canada

A Royal Australian Air Force (RAAF) F/A-18F Super Hornet drops two flares as it performs during the T150 Defence Force Air Show on October 15, 2016 in Townsville, Australia.

Canada plans to add 18 new Super Hornets to its RCAF fleet
A CF-188 Hornet fighter jet has crashed near Cold Lake, Alberta, killing the pilot.
The 401 Royal Canadian Air Force squadron was engaged in training exercises when the jet crashed around noon local time (19:00 GMT).
Air force spokesman Major Scott Spurr said the unnamed pilot had been confirmed dead.
Emergency services and flight safety crews are on site investigating the cause of the crash.
Major Spurr said it may take up to a year before the investigation is complete.
In 2010, another CF-188 Hornet crashed near Cold Lake during night-time training.
An inquiry found that night-time weather disoriented the pilot, who was able to safely eject from the plane before it crashed.
The Canadian government has committed to replacing the 30-year-old fleet of CF-18 over the next five years.
Canada cannot currently meet its commitments to the North Atlantic Treaty Organisation and the North American Aerospace Defense Command with its aging fleet of CF-18s.

CitaatVliegtuig stuntteam Red Arrows neergestort op basis in Wales

Op de militaire basis RAF Valley in Wales is een vliegtuig neergestort. Het was een Hawk van de Red Arrows, een stuntteam dat over de hele wereld shows verzorgt.

Er zaten volgens de eerste berichten twee mensen in het toestel. Ooggetuigen zeggen dat de twee hun schietstoel hebben gebruikt.

De Royal Air Force heeft mensen die foto's of video's van de crash hebben, gevraagd om die af te staan in verband met het onderzoek naar het ongeluk.

Het toestel was vermoedelijk op weg van de basis bij Anglesey in Wales naar de RAF Scampton in Lincolnshire, de thuisbasis van de Red Arrows.

Vluchtsimulator
De basis in Wales wordt veel gebruikt voor trainingsvluchten en het oefenen met een vluchtsimulator.

De Red Arrows bestaan al sinds 1965. Het team heeft als handelsmerk bij het uitvoeren van stunts dat er rode, witte en blauwe 'rookstrepen' worden getrokken.

[Bron: NOS.nl @ Artikel (https://nos.nl/artikel/2223496-vliegtuig-stuntteam-red-arrows-neergestort-op-basis-in-wales.html)

Ah hier naar toe verplaatst  prima!

Volgens geruchten gaat het om RED 3 (https://twitter.com/RAFRed3), de RAF vraagt iedereen die foto's heeft van het ongeluk zich te melden en deze te sturen naar de RAF maar ze niet online te delen. Waarom zouden ze vragen deze foto's niet online te plaatsen? Iedereen is er veilig (levend) uitgekomen volgens de info.

Ja helaas, maar eerlijk gezien de reputatie van het toestel in de (sociale)media valt het met nog reuze mee dat het "nog" maar 1 van elk type is, want volgens mij heeft er nog nooit een zo veilig fighter toestel gevolgen. De f35 lijkt wat dat bereft beetje op een tesla, daar wordt ook iedere zwaardere mishap breed uitgemeten in de media (als ze de kans krijgen), terwijl je over bijvoorbeeld de volkswagen golf nooit iets zult horen, of het moet al een grote terughaal actie zijn maar dan is het nog vaak OK.

Duitse Eurofighters neergestort na botsing, piloten in veiligheid
In het noorden van Duitsland zijn twee gevechtsvliegtuigen van de Duitse luchtmacht neergestort. Volgens de eerste berichten hebben de twee piloten zichzelf met hun schietstoel in veiligheid kunnen brengen. Of ze daarbij gewond zijn geraakt, is niet bekend. Een van de piloten zou terecht zijn, de ander is nog zoek. De Duitse krant Die Zeit zegt dat volgens het Duitse ministerie van Binnenlandse zaken een van de twee vliegtuigen neerstortte nabij het dorp Jabel. Het andere vliegtuig zou zijn neergestort aan de rand van een bos bij de plaats Nossertiner Hütte. De twee plekken waar de vliegtuigen zijn neergestort liggen ongeveer tien kilometer uit elkaar.

Rookpluimen
De twee toestellen van het type Eurofighter zouden rond 14.00 uur in de lucht tegen elkaar zijn gebotst in de regio Müritz in de deelstaat Meckelenburg-Vorpommern.
Op de eerste beelden zijn twee rookpluimen op de grond te zien. De hulpdiensten zijn uitgerukt naar de plaatsen waar de straaljagers zijn neergekomen.

CitaatDuitse militaire helikopter neergestort, waarschijnlijk een dode

In Duitsland is een militaire helikopter is neergestort. Bij de crash is volgens Duitse media een dode gevallen. Over de oorzaak van de crash is nog niks bekend.
De helikopter stortte rond 13.45 uur neer aan de rand van een bos bij de plaats Aerzen, zo'n 50 kilometer ten zuidwesten van Hannover.
Het is het tweede luchtvaartincident in Duitsland in korte tijd. Vorige week stortten twee straaljagers neer na een botsing, hierbij viel ook een dode en raakte een piloot gewond.

Het zou gaan om een EC-135 trainings helikopter van vliegschool in Bückeburg  van de Bundeswehr. Op deze vliegschool worden ook piloten opgeleid van verschillende NAVO partners.

Er is geen apart topic voor helikopter crashes, om die reden geplaatst in het fighter crashes topic.

Canadese marinehelikopter stort neer in zee

Een helikopter van de Canadese marine, die vloog onder de vlag van de NAVO, is tussen Griekenland en Italië van de radar verdwenen. Op dat moment vloog de heli boven de Ionische zee.

Dat heeft de Griekse luchtmacht bevestigd. De helikopter was opgestegen vanaf het Canadese fregat HMCS Fredericton en bevond zich zo'n 90 kilometer van de kust van het Griekse eiland Kefalonia. Het schip maakt deel uit van een NAVO-trainingsmissie.

Er zouden drie tot zes inzittenden zijn. Een reddingsoperatie is inmiddels op touw gezet.
