F18 crashes into homes.

Regardless of what happened, hes brave for staying with the jet till it hit the ground, a few people on my FB are saying they saw it line up with with highway briefly with flaps and gear down but traffic was too much and then proceded to dump fuel till it went silent, thats all the info ive got.
 
Wow, Americans again. Didn't a Cobra or Apache crash about 2 or so weeks ago with the pilot messing about as well? remember someone posting a video of it on here.
 
A jet fighter hits an apartment block, and there's plenty of it left.

A jumbo jet hits the pentagon and evaporates.
 
That's pretty amazing that no one was killed, it could have been much much worse if he'd had fuel left, or had hit a more populated area.

*yawns*

yes it evaporated so much the engines, landing gear, bits of skin etc were left lying around the place (and note that a fighter is much more densly built than a jumbo, something to keeping the size down for manoeuvrability, whilst a passenger get has a few dense bits* but is mainly a hollow tube with some fleshy bits)


*Oddly enough the most recognisable bit of that fighter is the tail end, like the engines and landing gear at the Pentagon...

Ermm so he sat dumping fuel but didn't steer to avoid the civilian population?
Isn't there a big fat lake beside where they hit he could have dumped it fuel or not?

Amazing no one was hurt, guess they were all out at the time.

You're a very smart guy :)

if only the pilot had thought of that

"Oh! instead of dumping this fuel, I'll just steer out the way of the houses! Wow! It worked! I'm so glad it was that straight foward"
