July 30, 200817 yr Best of luck to them. Why is the pic of an F-16, JHC!, google "F-15" before you put a pic up Fox News!
July 31, 200817 yr Anyone with access to the CSAF Daily Ops brief on SIPRNET should look at the slide for this incident...it is in today's (31 July) brief... For everyone else, the details will probably go public in a few days. The Nellis web site is probably the best place for info. Red Flag 08-3 is continuing... Godspeed! M2
July 31, 200817 yr Guys Please don't post any information on either pilot until it is publically released! Especially info that could be used to identify either. Cheers! M2
