Was gonna bid but I think the $5.50 for shipping is a little greedy.

All of the other costs involved in one of these ships make it impossible for the Air Force to be able to afford to equip their airplanes with Apple Air Tags just in case they get lost or stolen.

Don't worry. There will be a new contract given to one of these big aerospace firms to develop what is essentially an AirTag, and it'll only cost $2,000,000,000.

Even if it is on autopilot shouldn’t they have the last heading from the pilot and the flight plan?

Anybody here happen to know the F-35 start up sequence and where the gas cap is located?

Asking for a friend.

They still haven't found this thing? How deep are the lakes around there? Wouldn't you see a plane in the water if you flew a drone overhead? This is embarrassing for the Chair Force.

Interested to get more info about the pilot and what happened.

part of the deal of strike aircraft is. You don’t want them to be able to be tracked

You know our stealth technology has come a long way when we lose our own jets.

If the autopilot was functioning and the aircraft maintaining level flight. There was no reason to bail. This he, she, or it's flying career better be over.


Plane is on its way to China now. Chinese pilot wing suited into the cockpit after ours conveniently bailed with the autopilot on. It’s now up to Tom Cruise to intercept the plane en route and avoid WW3.

Assuming it crashed if he ejected. If no one saw an explosion, maybe it hit the water? Sad they can’t track a freaking jet.

Why would they describe the pilot in any detail? Lol. I get this with a crime/perp on the run.

This is not acceptable and beyond ridiculous.
We had many pilots who had major damage to their B-17s from the nazis still make it back to base and land their ship mostly safely. What kind of marshmellow pilots do we have today ?



This guy would blow a major gasket today... and rightly so.
