and the 158th FW Vermont ANG F-35 folks.

Here’s an open website with news of the F-35. USMC on the ground.

The 80 million dollar question is why pilot bailed on aircraft in autopilot mode with transponder off according to early reports.
Guess why we have training wings for these folks. The truth will come out eventually. We are lucky nobody on ground got hurt.
Looks like DHS/FBI/FAA? picked up some folks from Martin State airport and dropped off at Charleston earlier today.

N708JH is FBI. Very curious what’s in Baltimore that would’ve been helpful in the search.
Prob not for the search but to interview the pilot and all things related.. Possible serious stuff so someone
has to go find out.. Normally US Mil investigates themselves on their accidents but when aircraft crashes in
Civy US territory on routine training mission others like FAA etc..will get involved..
