F-15C mishap in Virginia
At 0906L, an F-15C crashed in Augusta Co., Va; not far from where I am. The aircraft was from the 104th Mass. Air Guard Base. VSP, and ASCO units are responding, and it is reported that the pilot did eject from the aircraft prior to the crash. Aircraft was on a "standard training flight" headed to La. Main roadway is Rte 250, heavy rescue/LEO traffic there just now. Crash site looks to be located west of Staunton, Va, about half way between I-81, and Jackson River Rd.., nearest town is Deerfield, Va. News Conference from Barnes AFB @ 1400L.
