You know nothing....seriously....you know nothing. You know what a turbine is? You know what an engine compressor is? You know what happens if one of them throws a blade?I never joke about these things, I'd joke about you, but not something like this.
Well then you are just an idiot. Planes crash, it happens when they are flown the way an F/A-18 is flown.
Son I've been in more tight spots than you would ever believe. The odds of an 18 exploding on it's own are slim to none.
I know you're a desperate man seeking relevance, does that count? The 18 is one of the most reliable aircraft ever.
And yet they still crash. While I was with VFMA-451 I had the unfortunate experience of being the Duty NCO the day we lost one of our planes and a pilot. I ended up being present when the CO told the wife of the pilot her husband was killed.
