Показать описание
On July 25, 2016, air traffic controller Jessica Earp faced a life-or-death emergency in the skies over the Bering Sea. A U.S. Marine Corps F/A-18 Hornet, suffering engine failure and running low on fuel, declared a mayday. With the nearest planned landing site 550 miles away, Earp acted quickly and decisively, guiding the jet to a tiny airstrip on St. Paul Island—just 80 miles southeast.

Thanks to her calm professionalism and precision, the pilot, Capt. Jesse Simmermon, and his wingman landed safely in what seemed like impossible circumstances. This heroic act earned Jessica Earp the prestigious Archie League Medal of Safety Award. Witness this incredible true story of quick thinking and teamwork that saved lives at 30,000 feet.

On July 25, 2016. When a fighter jet lost an engine over the Bering Sea last summer, the quick thinking of an Anchorage air traffic controller hundreds of miles away helped bring two U.S. Marine pilots home safe, and earned the controller a national award last month. This one, however, was a Marine Corps F/A-18 Hornet fighter jet, making its way from Eielson Air Force Base near Fairbanks to a training exercise in Asia. The pilot, Capt. Jesse Simmermon, turned his aircraft back toward Alaska, with another F/A-18 accompanying him. Both were running low on fuel.

Dude, I believe you have the info very wrong. What came on the radio were a flight of CF-18's not USMC F/A-18C Legacy Hornet's, CF-18's are the Canadian version of the F/A-18A/B variants...

The transcription is awful, CF-18s not F/A-18 wrong call signs. Is this all machine converted without any human interaction? Thumbs down
