Yes, both walked away just fine with no injuries.

I had a sim instructor at Vance who crawled away from one.

Fellas, I'm familiar with the incident that prosuper was talking about and he simply misspoke. It was a gear up landing, on the belly of the jet not a belly up landing. The dude that did it was still teaching -38's in the 5th when I left Vance a while back.

Thank you for correcting me. What was the cause of this incident? As you can tell my writing skills for a SNCO are sub par due to lack of practice. All I did was deploy and do my job.

No worries. I don't know/remember the exact cause but remember the dude talking about having time to coordinate for KTIK to get their shit in a sock for his "arrival."
