2003 May 26: With No. 416 Squadron when it crashed and was destroyed near CFBCanadian Forces Base Cold Lake, Alberta, Canada, during Maple Flag mission on 26 May 2003. Apparently lost control, performed several uncommanded high rate rolls, during return to base as part of 4 plane flight. From accident report: "The investigation team believes the accident flight profile was created by a flight control malfunction of the left horizontal stabilator which abruptly deflected to a full trailing edge down position, sending the Aircraft into a violent, high negative G barrel roll to the right. It is believed the pilot was able to momentarily stop the Aircraft’s rolling motion near wings level, however... by the time the ejection was initiated, the Aircraft had resumed the negative G roll to the right." Pilot Capt. K. Naismith killed during ejection, first CF fatality during a CF-18 ejection.[RWR Walker] |
