A lot of good pilots lost at that tragic incident..

Our news state a flame-out of the engine and no "wrong maneuvers" by the pilots.

My condolences to the family members. Very sad news indeed.

They say "wrong maneuvers" because plane immediately after departing ground at 40 feet, banked to the right and wing scratched the airstrip. This is possible due to stall imbalance from flame out situation .... or FBW / control surfaces failure ..... or to the unintended disconnection / destabilization of AGM-88 HARM simulation POD carried on right wing.

 

In any case NATO has lost too many special pilots and ground crew at once yesterday !
