Re: Pilot Ejects After Jet Falls into Sea
That was the external fuel tank, he dropped it to lighten the plane and maybe gain altitude. If he had lost the drop sooner, he may have been able to go-around. That is fuel spray, which kind of looks like smoke, btw.

Re: Pilot Ejects After Jet Falls into Sea
Very interesting. Always wanted to be a fighter pilot and anything like this is very interesting.
