By Carmen L. Gleason
American Forces Press Service
WASHINGTON, Nov. 6, 2007 - The Air Force has grounded its F-15
Eagle fleet following the crash of a Missouri Air National Guard
F-15C on Nov. 2. However, F-15s assigned to North American
Aerospace Defense Command and U.S. Central Command Air Forces will
be on alert and fly required missions, officials said today.
Although the incident is still under investigation, preliminary
findings indicate a possible structural failure led to last week's
crash during a training exercise near Salem, Mo.
