Comments:
Collided with F-16A (FA-31, 78-0146) 30 km South-west of Limoges, France. For Slt. Albert Jonnart the collision was fatal. The tail section was ripped off and the aircraft automatically climbed to 5,000 ft. Did the pilot try to eject? Fact is that the ejection seat was activated upon impact with the ground and only at that moment the pilot was seperated from his seat. The pilot of the other aicraft, Danny Faye, managed to make an emergency landing at Limoges.
