Edit: Most importantly, it has been reported there are no casualties on the ground. Jet crashed just next to an appartment building.
Hi,
Do I read CIVILIAN ?...
Therefore, like all the "warbirds", it has nothing to do here... :roll:

It's OK for us, most fans are interested in its military past anyway.

The rules on your site will always amuse me.
As a former military pilot, I am always surprised by you "flexible" rules for somones but not for everyone.
I am interested in warbirds too, but I would never search this news here...
Reading strange things about this accident, I wanted to highlight some professionel points.
But I will not.
Last time I shared informations about an active mil helo crash, in this section, my post was moved by the admin to the heli section, where I would never search it...
This is how to waste accurate pows.
You are definitely amateurs, not professionals. You like mil planes ? Hopefully, we use more strict rules and orgamisation.
You should copy that too...
I will stop to share anything else in this jungle.

You're right about 1 thing FNF Rafale: The people behind this site and magazine are not professionals indeed. They are volunteers who put considerable time into this, next to their jobs, family etc. Always good to point out mistakes and suggestions, but a little more respect would be appreciated by all I think.

There have been regular posts by them to request additional editors and members to strengthen the Scramble team. Perhaps you can volunteer and help make this site even better?

Kind regards, Bart

You don't sound professional at all to me.
Answers will be questioned.....

How nice is it to have a search option on the message board: simply type mig Michigan and you'll find all the relevant posts. Or, as a couple of English meerkats would say: Simples ...

...for those to whom it may concern;
Pprune.org has
https://www.pprune.org/military-aviatio ... -23-a.html

Yes, the subcribers over there are aging, now,
but the first "P" of Pprune stands for "Professional".

Lots of retired ex military jet pilots still over there, as I found out over the last twenty years.
And of course there is still Linkedin ....
