| #3 Did they mention how they lost their wheels? I'm assuming it was a gear down failure. |

| #1 ...I've had the pleasure of working with 1 Sqdn RAAF (the F-111 guys) on several occasions, and they are an incredibly sharp and professional team. I'm glad they didn't have to eject - besides losing the plane, the F-111 uses an ejection capsule that has caused more than a few injuries over the years. Mike |
