Okay, let’s talk about that missing/crashed F-35

When this story first began going viral on social media yesterday, I didn’t jump in immediately to write anything about it. My reason, along with many others who were commenting, was that I was honestly waiting for the big reveal when we would learn that the entire thing was a hoax. It simply sounded close to impossible. A pair of pilots in F-35 Lightning II stealth combat aircraft were flying side-by-side over the Carolinas when one of the pilots encountered some sort of undisclosed anomalous event, leading him to eject from the aircraft and parachute into a residential area below. Yet his plane kept flying by itself and before long, the military announced that our F-35s are apparently so stealthy that they couldn’t even locate it. As of this morning, however, the wreckage has been found in Williamsburg County, South Carolina, and the pilot is being cared for in a local hospital and is expected to be okay. But hoo boy… there are still so many questions about this bizarre event that are begging for answers. (Associated Press)Read More
