Srušio se E-2 iz skvadrona VAW-120 koji služi za obuku pilota i elektroničara mornarice. Sva četiri člana posade su uspela da napuste avion kroz bočna vrata i padobranima su se spustila pretrpevši manje povrede.

Navy E-2 Hawkeye crashes in Virginia
Geoff Ziezulewicz September 1. 2020

An E-2C Hawkeye aircraft crashed Monday afternoon in Virginia, according to the Navy.


The Hawkeye was conducting a training flight at 4:05 p.m. when it crashed near Wallops Island, northeast of Norfolk, said Naval Air Force Atlantic spokeswoman Cmdr. Jennifer Cragg in a statement. Both pilots and two crewmembers bailed out of the aircraft safely and sustained “no major injuries,” Cragg said.

They bailed out via the main cabin door and were already wearing parachutes, which is required when they board the aircraft, she said. Initial reports also did not indicate that any personnel on the ground were injured, nor were any structures damaged in the crash, she said.

Assigned to Airborne Command and Control Squadron 120 out of Naval Station Norfolk, the aircraft was conducting a training flight at the time of the crash, Cragg said. VAW 120 is a fleet replacement squadron that trains pilots, naval flight officers and naval aircrewmen.
