Splash! Crash!

For the second time in the last couple days an F/A-18 Super Hornet from the USS Harry S. Truman has wound up in the drink, this time from an accident following a missed trap.

See here if you don't get it.


Meanwhile, the Finns lost an F/A-18C to an accident, too. The aircrew on the U.S. Navy and Finnish Air Force jets all ejected safely. Not a good week for the Plastic Bug. (Of course, there are a blue jillion Hornets and Super Hornets in operation. Accidents happen.)
