Damn! A C-12, KC-135R, and a 747 cargo jet carrrying military cargo all in one week. Wow! I have flown all over the world on 135's. If it exploded in the air, I would bet money on a shorted out wire in one of the fuel tanks. There are wires up the yin yang in the tanks and one good spark makes for one helluva boom. Prayers for all involved.

A guy at work said his brother knew the pilot of the 747 that went down. From what I gather he was an ex B-1B pilot out of Dyess AFB Tx. I knew as soon as I saw the 747 video, it was cargo that had broken loose. Being in the AF/ Air Guard for 20 years it's tough seeing stuff like that.

Unfortunately with all these crashes lately, looks like the Air Force needs to do a safety stand down.
Safety Stand Down - Day in which the squadron shuts down and does safety training. They review their practices and look for problems and way to improve and fix them. |
