Didnt they say that alot of the aircraft was still under ground Machfly? People and planeparts can still be under ground somewhere and if the ground has frozen it will take some time to recover everything.

So he did not eject and they can't find the pilot? How do they know if he did not survive without finding the body?

Afk for a year or so.  The name of a gun turret in game.  Falanx, huh? :banana:
Apparently I'm in the 20th FG 'Loco Busters', or so the legend goes.

What do you think you'll find if your tactical jet lawndarts while you're hauling bellybutton down in the weeds?  There won't be a body.

Tailwinds, Captain.

I read they found parts of the ejection seat which means it never left the aircraft and pieces of the pilots flight suit. Also some of his survival gear.

My stepdad (UH-60 Crewchief/Mechanic) says the general talk around base is, the aircraft impacted around 1,000 knts.

If he didn't bail, he didn't make it. Still waiting for concrete evidence  :pray
