Jack H. was the F-16 pilot and a good friend. I picked him up at the hospital after he was released. He told me the story of this incident and talked about the things that he thought about prior to ejection. He talked about thinking about Becky, his wife, and their kids and how he wondered if he would ever see them again. He talked about thinking of the ejection process and the training he had received if he ever needed to eject. About the indications in the cockpit and his decision to abandon the aircraft. He went on for about thirty minutes describing his emotions and thoughts. Then he pulled the handle. When I finally saw this video in 1983 I was stunned by the sequence of events. The mind is a wondrous thing.

I had a close call with an F-15 attempting to shoot an AIM-9 head on while flying as an Aggressor at Decimomannu, IT (Sardinia) in the 1980s. The F-15 pilot was so fixated on trying to get a lock-on that he pressed the simulated attack until inside of 9,000 feet before pulling away slightly. At our closure rate of over 1,500 feet per second, it took about 5 seconds from the time he called Fox 2 and when he passed over me at what we estimated as less than 200 feet. I did not see him until he passed me, so I took no evasive maneuvers. After this incident, aircrews in USAFE were restricted from pressing a head on attack inside of 2 nm (12,000 feet) and were to immediately make a hard turn away from the target. I am a lucky man to still be here today.

@1stviper5895 жыл бұрын
OH CRAP, this really DID happen while I was there with the Wolfpack and I never thought there would be cockpit video of this. My understanding was that the F4 and F 16 collided and snapped the wing off our F-16 at the root where it joins the body. It created a shotgun effect blast of epoxy resin pieces (that the wing was made out of)and threw those pieces through the metal surfaces of that F4!! Thankfully the aircrews got back safe and that heavy metal F4 made it back leaking like crazy but the Marines pulled that thing in the hanger beside us and made noise for a couple of days and what came out of there was nothing short of billboard amazing. Those guys had cut apart every single aluminum can you can imagine from Coke Pepsi beer cans Etc flatten them out and pop riveted them over all the holes in the fuselage of that F4 and fix the leaks, pressure-tested things and they got that Beast back in the air it was absolutely amazing but it looked like this biggest flying ad ever!!

Phantoms could take some serious damage. At Moody we had two Dobbins F-4s land after a midair. The wingman struck leads left stab with his radome and many of the chunks went down the intakes. The pilot only had to shut down one J-79 and landed safely along with his lead. The radome was gone and the radar antenna blew back over the radar package like an umbrella in a hurricane. Many Phantom jocks were Nam vets (this was in the early 1980s, we evacuated in '75) and trained very hard. That's how I learned Phantoms could break engine mounts when over-G'ed and that the bay doors would safely support the engine until landing.

It looks like both raccoons were late tally, both calling bogeydope. If they were assigned red and blue sanctuaries (to maintain until tally) then they potentially broke them before the bandit called tally and both raccoons called tally. The nautical mile readout showed 1nm /6000ft rapidly decreasing as lead took the fox 2 shot then broke up to avoid collision but collided with the wing of the phantom I believe. Normal procedure is to break out/right well before 1.5nm (or not across flight paths) to preserve a safe bubble but it looks like both jets went up maybe together and collided.

They landed safely at Kunsan AB. Fixed the damage with duct tape and some minor sheet work and flew plane back to their home base.

The closure rate on the two jets was over 1000 knots. That's more than 1150 mph. They were simulating a dogfight, it's a common training tactic. They just didn't see each other fast enough most likely, given the speed at which they came together.

Knock it off doesn't mean end the training. It means emergency radio transmissions only.
@andyowens54944 жыл бұрын
detaildon Err... where did you get that definition from? It means stop whatever it is you are doing, generally for safety reasons. If engaged in BFM, stop the manoeuvre. Starting an engine that develops a fuel leak, cut the engine. Where the situation is safety critical, all personnel would naturally avoid any radio comms not directly relevant to the incident (assuming they have been properly trained and are applying that training) so that important communications get through - your statement is a consequence of the events, not the meaning of the call. Folks wouldn’t carry on high-energy manoeuvres and just stop radio calls, thats a recipe for an even bigger catastrophe; it all stops on that call, and folks role-call their acknowledgements (so everyone knows whos still in the airspace) and immediately begin deconfliction (so no-one else gets involved, allowing all resources to focus on the critical elements of the rescue/recovery of the original participants).

Forgot a mayday. I have heard pilots in a lot worse situation and remained calm. Like one facing certain death and simply and calmly saying "Oh, shit". but none of us know how we would react until actually faced with the situation. Some poop their pants. And that can be a good thing if you take internal injuries.
