F-22 Crash

[Instro84]

For those interested in info on the F-22 crash today, the pilot unfortunately didnt make it. LtCol (Ret) David Cooley USAF, AKA "Cools" call sign Dagger 2 for the F117A. Was a great pilot and commander. Also a very good friend of mine.

The initial reports said the pilot ejected and was unhurt. So much for accuracy in reporting.

Was it a Lockheed Martin test flight?

Air Force test with LM pilot.
