An F-15E Strike Eagle like the one that went down in Libya last March

The crew members of that F-15E that went down in Libya nearly a year ago have finally surfaced to tell their story. Over at CNN’s Security Clearance blog, one of them tells Barbara Starr what it felt like:

Very much like if you were driving your car down the road and you hit a patch of ice and your car starts spinning. That’s exactly what our aircraft at that point was doing.

Battleland detailed the official cause of the crash a month ago.
