    Default F-22 missing in Alaska, presumed crashed

    http://www.cnn.com/2010/US/11/17/ala...ex.html?hpt=T2

    Hope they pack cold-weather gear up there, Alaska in November wouldn't be a fun place to bail.

    Well there goes about 1.5 billion

    Hope they find the pilot and get him home safe to his family

    Thats a stinks, hope the pilots o.k.! If he survives the crash that area is relatively mild as AK topography goes.

    That's sad news. F-22 is usually tracked by transponder on the secondary radar since it is a 'stealth' aircraft. It'd be extremely hard to find the crash site if the pilot didn't survive or injured bad enough not to activate the emergency beacon.

    Hope he/she is ok.
