"Reports indicate the pilot acknowledged the F-16 fighters—initially scrambled from the Minnesota Air National Guard, then replaced by fighters from the Wisconsin Air National Guard, and finally fighters from the Louisiana Air National Guard—but was unresponsive to specific non-verbal commands."
Doesn't mention which three squadrons at which air bases though. |

| High-G turns? Cessna 182? Crack is not good for you...seriously though, have you EVER flown one of those before? Airspeed bleeds off like crazy, you don't exactly have an F100 under your seat. What you said is similar to saying that a Predator could defeat an F-15 because it's more maneuverable. IT CANNOT KEEP ITS ENERGY UP. |

Olllldddd thread. Skyhigh was booted off F-16.net a while back. Unable to find the link at present. Vaguely remember it as dogfighting without a gun or something like that, but all I'm finding right now is threads on the F-35B & C's lack of an internal gun.  |
