The number of planes coming down smoking or burning is rising, even as the amount of flammable methane in the atmosphere is rising...

http://www.defensenews.com/air/2018/08/22/f-35-landing-gear-collapses-after-in-flight-emergency/

Quote: "Just in from 33rd FW: An F-35A Lightning II, assigned to the 58th Fighter Squadron, experienced a ground mishap at approximately 12:50 p.m. today on the flightline here. The F-35A experienced an in-flight emergency and returned to base. The aircraft landed safely and parked when the front nose gear collapsed."

Quote: "Photographs showed a crash truck positioned near the F-35, but it is not clear whether or not the in-flight emergency (IFE) actually involved a fire. Deploying a firetruck is a standard response during tactical jet IFE recoveries regardless of indications of a fire onboard the stricken jet. But it's also worth noting that F-35s have experienced engine fires in the past."

The SUN reports that the pilot fainted in the cockpit while the plane was being diverted because of thunderstorms in Italy. The pilot had to be rushed to hospital upon landing. The plane was flying from London Stansted to Palermo in Italy on Thursday evening, but had to land 67 miles away in Trapani due to thunderstorms in the area. The co-pilot then passed out near the airport and the captain was forced to land the plane himself. The Sun Online quotes a source as saying that the first officer was 'not able to function' and was taken to hospital after being examined by medical staff."
