T-45 Mishap

[FLY_USMC]

If your wife doesn't know better than to blab to the media about a crash, then you need a new wife.

The point is she knows nothing about what happened yet she is getting a call AT WORK "ordering her" not to talk to the media. Knives club at work.

So what are you trying to say? You don't like the call...or your wife didn't like the call?

If you were dumb and blabbed info you are not supposed to in the first place, then it is your own fault. If the media wants to go find and interview my wife, then they are about as far away from a credible source as they can be. The media typically talks to family members if said family member contacts the media themself!

Unless you told her something in "confidence" about what you saw or heard.

Between the 4 or 5 T-45 crashes/ejections within the past year, as well as the T-34 and two T-38 accidents, the training pipelines have been having some severe problems. Hopefully we can have a long overdue break from accidents (and birds) here soon: stay safe everyone!

Not all do, and thats why the wives club should talk about the need to avoid the media for the exact reason Shnugg said.

Loose lips sink ships and that would probably include telling your wife something she does not need to know. Ordering wives is obsurd and stupid. They have enough to deal with just being supportive.

Thankfully, both are healthy & home. Cause of crash under investigation.

Glad they're OK.

Question: What qualifies as "Privileged Information"
Question 2: Does the final report ever make it outside the Naval Aviation community? (Excepting of course information regarding sensitive technology etc..)

Please excuse my ignorance.

Question: What qualifies as "Privileged Information"

Pretty much everything involved with the AMB.

Question 2: Does the final report ever make it outside the Naval Aviation community? (Excepting of course information regarding sensitive technology etc..)

In theory, it's not supposed to. There are actually two investigations conducted, a JAGMAN (which is releasable) and a SIR (which is not).

 

[WinterMute]

Could you good sir clarify the meaning of those acronyms?

 

[SemperGumbi]

AMB= Aviation Mishap Board.

I don't know what JAGMAN actually stands for (try google) but it is sort of like the "criminal" investigation. Not really criminal per se, but to decide who/what is at fault for the incident. They can then assign blame (again, for lack of a better term--although sometimes that is the perfect term).

The SIR is a safety investigation. The thought being that since the SIR results are confidential there will be...ut-hm....more information given to the investigation thus helping to prevent a similar situation in the future.

My exposure to all three has, thankfully, been fairly limited. Only seen a few. Any saltier guys feel free to correct me/add on.

 

[HuggyU2]

In the spirit of interservice bilingualism,.... in the USAF,
- the SIB is the Safety Investigation Board, and its goal is to prevent the future occurance.
- the AIB is the Accident Investigation Board, and it blames folks.
Caveat: I'm not, nor have I ever been, a "Safety" guy. And, since some of the nuances between an AIB and SIB are lost on me, I speak to neither board unless I have an attorney present.

.....I don't know what JAGMAN actually stands for.....

JAGMAN = Manual of the Judge Advocate General
