I guess everything has to be spelled out here these days:
My POINT was, that a jet crashing into a residential neighborhood wherein the pilots have ejected is dereliction of duty. When the military apologists come to explain why it wasn't, we'll all have a good time here excoriating them. And there'll be the usual DU stuff... -sigh--

Is far more likely.
We had an F-18 go down two years or so ago here in La Jolla. It flattened a home, killing five.
When the investigation was over...yup pneumatic failure, lack of stick control.
If I were the Navy, I'd check every fighter in the fleet if indeed this is the problem. Could be a defect.

Does this idiot understand that whenever there is a massive system failure on one aircraft, they do a safety stand down and check every other aircraft with the same systems? That's SOP for the DOD.

And for her next trick, Nadin will pull a blind Korean-Swiss midget juggling chainsaws out of her ass while singing America The Beautiful on the back of an insane burning camel!!!

I always thought pneumatic was concerning drills and nail guns...hydraulic applied to aircraft.
And what nadin doesn't realize is that planes these days are fly-by-wire.
