Is a damn shame they've retired the Jag in NATO. The RAF Pilots who flew em were a crack bunch! Excellent Aircraft and excellent Pilots.

@shrivaldo ummmm... i don't have a lot of information regarding the crash it self, just that the f-16 American pilot crashed his aircraft as he was tail chasing a jaguar inside a narrow valley & crashed it onto a mountain... he didn't have time to eject... it's been a period since that crash & few people only remaining who can tell you the full true story..

@7791ramrod Have you any more info on this F16 crash please?

@KiNOV4 that takeoff was kind bumpy wasn't it
Oman is not in the persian gulf, the pilots were Omanis & an american pilot crashed his f-16 in a mountain as he was following one of these crazy pilots..

@7791ramrod Thank you for the reply. This extract is from Wiki with reference to Oman. :- Countries with a coastline on the Persian Gulf are (clockwise, from the north): Iran, Oman (exclave of Musandam), United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia , Qatar on a peninsula off the Saudi coast, Bahrain on an island, Kuwait and Iraq in the northwest. When I was in the RAF everyone referred to Oman being in the Persian Gulf!

Technically you're right, but truth be told, the part that does have a link to the Persian Gulf is only a small enclave that's not entirely connected to Oman.. THe bigger part of Oman, has no link whatsoever to the Persian Gulf, and lies in fact in the Gulf of Oman.

@svandamme76 Accepted. If I'm technically right that will do. However I bow to your superior knowledge in this matter.

@mollyisagooddog
you can stop bowing, i just looked at Wiki like you did.. Except i checked the Oman article and map rather then the text from the Persian Gulf, which doesn't tell the whole story.
