There are a lot of Chuck Yeagers in this thread

cessna dude could have been flying stoned, drunk, upside down and backwards and it's still nearly entirely on the jetboy, and that would have been true even if in restricted airspace, which he obviously wasn't.
jetjock jackson thinks his shite don't stink, that's fine, if he flys like that when he meets the ground it will come in real handy. my money's on the ground...

My bet is that you have no idea what happened.

like I said, here is what the cessna pilot would have seen, had he been looking in the right direction that is..

take a few minutes to think about it before you speak again.

You are a smug little fricker aren't you.

Yall should compare flight hours. It's what real pilots do because they all have small dicks

My friend you have no idea what happened, i promise you don't.

My dad spent some of the 50's and some of the 60's doing low level runs in these in a Marine special weapon squadron.
The squadron was in Miami during the Cuban Missile Crisis.

I'm proud of what this thread has become.

“From what I understand from a witness, the military plane struck the other, small aircraft broadside,” Bill Salisbury, the Berkeley County coroner and chief of the county’s rescue squad, said at an earlier news conference on Tuesday afternoon.

if this was witnessed then it was clearly at very low altitude, in civilian airspace, I don't know if jetboy had active radar on, no, but he should have, further why is he flying that low in that airspace? it's actually pretty obvious what happened.

did a fighter dude steal your woman?
Posted on 7/8/15 at 2:27 pm to Jagd Tiger
I think "jetboy" may have actually been a woman.
Supposedly, per media reports, the collision happened at an approximate altitude of between 2,000 and 3,000'.

"JetBoy" was practicing IMC approaches into CHS and was under approach control.

The F-16 pilot, Air Force Maj. Aaron Johnson, safely ejected himself from the plane and was transported to Joint Base Charleston for a health assessment. Johnson's F-16 "Fighting Falcon" was from the 55th Fighter Squadron at Shaw Air Force Base in Sumter. "These are very rare," said Lt. Jenny Hyden, a spokeswoman for Shaw. "Military aircraft and civilian aircraft are not usually flying in the same airspace. When military aircrafts are doing any combat maneuvers, they are in a different airspace that civilian aircrafts are not allowed in."
Col. Stephen Jost, the commander of the 20th Fighter Wing at Shaw, said at a news conference Tuesday afternoon that Johnson was participating in a standard instrument training. Jost said Johnson was flying toward Charleston and is a "highly experienced" pilot.
"There's nothing to say that he won't be flying next week," he said.

So, it wasn't a girl?

The vast majority of military flights are in civilian airspace there Chuck Yeager.
Vipers do not have TCAS and he was practicing instrument approaches therefore probably did not have the radar in air to air.
He wasn't hotdogging it at low altitude. As previously stated, the collision happened 2-3K while the viper was under ATC control.
It is a tragic accident, two people lost their lives, and the viper pilot will have to live with it for the rest of his.
You have neither the knowledge nor experience to comment on this subject much less pass judgment.
