Electric jet? No recharging station?

"You better believe that I’d be searching around the clock if I was in the region. Grab a six pack of light beer, get the boys together and go on the greatest scavenger hunt in South Carolina history."

Call me stupid, but doesn't a $150 million jet come with capabilities to locate it?

AirTag for jets.

Something ain't right here.First the pilot ejects due to a "mishap".Then the transponder not working right,no one see or hears anything,and the military says they are looking in Moultie/Marion lake area but people in that area say they have seen no evidence of military looking.

A funny line in one article said officials noted that the plane was left in autopilot when the pilot ejected, so it was possible that it was still flying. It would obviously be out of fuel by now though.

My guess is it's in the vast wilderness of the Francis Marion. A coon hunter will come across it one night.

Then that begs the question,Why eject from a perfectly good aircraft?

Well, it is a STEALTH fighter, after all. Probably going to be hard to find, right?

 

[Irvin Snibbley]

Also,did the wingman not see where the plane went down?...Something smells here.

 

[HillsToSea]

Not admitting to anything. I’ll just say my travel time to games is going to be a lot shorter

 

[Tusi21!!]

Joe gave them the code to take it to Cuba.

 

[Sparklecity]

They should put a IPhone on those planes so they could just do a locate my phone

 

[Tusi21!!]

My earlier post was just a hunch.

How does the military lose a F-35 jet that took off in SC?

Mexican Clint Eastwood stole it like in the Firefox movie.

Sources say they found a debris field about 2 hours from Charleston, in Williamsburg County.

You think it's a malfunction doing practice?

I saw a video a couple of years ago of one that lost control while hovering, I don't recall if the pilot ejected.

Mishap??
Pilot thought he was adjusting his seat - found out it was the ejection handle!! lol

 

[Irvin Snibbley]

I know your post was in jest but it might turn out to be something as crazy as that.Never heard of a pilot ejecting for any other reason than mechanical failure.Nobody said anything about that so far.Makes you wonder.

The silence on the ''mishap'' is very telling.
Standard story that releasing information will hamper the investigation. Yea, right.

Also no info on the pilot who landed in a civilian's back yard.

I just read that he was released today with only minor injuries.

How do you know it was a "he"? I didn't find any article that mentions the sex of the pilot.

The pilot who ejected himself from the F-35 was discharged from the hospital on Monday afternoon, according to the official.

The pilot, whose name has not been released, had no major injuries and was in stable condition before being discharged, the official said. No civilian injuries have been reported from the incident.
