| [Mil.com] An F-22 Raptor pilot faces court-martial this October on charges of sexual assault, as well as striking and unlawfully grabbing an individual. Col. Jason Costello, assigned to the North American Aerospace Defense Command and U.S. Northern Command at Peterson Air Force Base, Colorado, is accused of multiple sexual assault incidents between 2012 and 2014, according to an Air Force charge sheet. He has been charged with violating Article 120 of the Uniform Code of Military Justice, defined as rape, sexual assault or other sexual misconduct. Costello penetrated a woman while she was asleep in 2014, according to one specification. The act allegedly occurred in the state of Rhode Island sometime between October and December 2014, it states. On an earlier occasion, Costello assaulted a woman without her consent, with an intent to gratify himself, sometime between September and November 2012, another specification reads. Separately, "on diverse occasions between on or about Dec. 4, 2012, and on or about Aug. 1, 2014," Costello committed sexual contact by touching his victim's "breasts over her clothes with his hands and touching her vulva over her clothes with his hands" without her consent, the charge sheet states. Another specification under Article 120 has been redacted. It is unclear if it has been removed. |

| #3 No Volvo. Darn but remember in 1959 Air Force Capt. John S. Lappo flew a Boeing B-47 jet underneath the Mackinac Bridge? We had a former SAC pilot on staff. He explained that Lappo had completely got away with it. That was until one of the crew got drunk at a party and spilled the beans. |

| #1 After reading the headline, I thought "Volvo makes a plane?" "Could it have been an old Saab instead?" I see what you did there. B. |
