Thankfully, it sounds like the pilot is probably safe. We'll have to wait and see what happened. They grounded a handful of others.

Sadly our inventory of F22's was only 183... now 182. Still disagree with the original cessation of production.

Heard that while working in the yard this morning. Glad to hear the pilot is safe, but sad to hear another F-22 is out of the inventory. Such a badass fighter.

The crash happened with a plane that was not involved with the flyovers, it was on it's own unrelated training mission.
