My most sincere condolences to the families of the five officers of Norwegian Royal Airforce, who died in the crash of their plane in Northern Sweden while taking part in a multinational Scandinavian exercise, when their C-130J crashed in to Mount Kebnekaise. Condolences to the Norwegian people and the fellow servicemen of the deceased.

"Listen to me, nugget, and listen good. Don't go poppin' your head out like that, unless you want it shot off. And if you do get it shot off, make sure you're dead, because if you ain't, guess who's gotta drag your sorry ass off the field? Were short on everything, so the only painkiller I have comes in 9mm doses. Now get the hell out of my foxhole!" - an unknown medic somewhere, 2013. -
I hadn't heard about this. I'll have to have a look at some news sites to see if I can get more info. Any word on the cause of the crash Mechanical failure, bad weather Mountains are pretty hard not to notice so I'm guessing it probably wasn't pilot errorsigpic "It is better to be feared than loved" - Nicolo Machiavelli -
They were flying in a bad weather, so it might just have been the case, the plane hit the mountain and exploded. This happened already a couple of days ago, but they were able to locate the plane just last night and determine, the crew had perished in the crash.Originally posted by Targan View Post"Listen to me, nugget, and listen good.
