Saw that on the news, good thing the guy got out just in time! Guess it justifies the recent purchase of F35's Canada got recently.

Canadian Minister of National Defence, Peter MacKay, announced this morning the plan to purchase 65 F35 Joint Strike Fighters.This purchase constitutes the largest military purchase in history.The new fighter aircraft would replace the current fleet of CF-18s starting in 2017. Those fighters were reportedly recently upgraded at a cost of $2.6-billion.

Wow... lucky guy!

Yike!! The plane is too close to the ground and too close for comfort like that. The guy is lucky and not very close to the explosion before landed almost right beside it. Wow. Very scary. He is very lucky to escape from the cockpit.

the pilot is extremely lucky that a blob of fire didn't swallow him

 

[Tousi]

Yes, with just one second to spare!

 

[Steinhauer]

even more lucky he didn't land in the blob of fire with his parachute.

It is time for the opposition parties like Liberals and commie NDP to realize how necessary it is for us to purchase 65 F-35s and shut up.
