    Update: Both airmen on board were killed.
    Ladies and gentlemen, this is your captain speaking. We have a small problem.
    All four engines have stopped. We are doing our damnedest to get them under control.
    I trust you are not in too much distress. —Captain Eric Moody, British Airways Flight 9

    So sorry about the pilots....prayers are with you and whole Lemoore base.

    I have a friend who is Hornet/Super Hornet pilot and two pilots from yesterdays crash are members of his team :(( He couldn't say anything about the crash etc and everyone is shocked right now.
