Quote: "A plane made an emergency landing at New York's Kennedy Airport after reports of smoke in the cockpit. Officials say United Airlines Flight 4697 from Washington to Providence, Rhode Island was diverted about 2 p.m. Tuesday. About 50 people were evacuated from the twin-engine Embraer ERJ-145 regional jet and bused to a terminal."
Note: This is the 132nd aircraft to smoke/burn/explode in 2018. In all of 2017, 116 planes came down smoking or burning or exploded, so we're already well past that count, with nearly five months to go in the year. The number of planes coming down smoking or burning is rising, even as the amount of flammable methane in the atmosphere is rising...

Note: The fatality was the big rig driver. Hard to believe that the collision killed him. A semi would mow down a couple of stopped cars and barely feel it. You see head-on collisions all the time these days where a car hits a semi head-on and the driver of the car dies and the semi driver isn't even hurt. So this driver may have been having a 'medical event' or was possibly already dead before his truck hit these cars...

Quote: "Montana Highway Patrol is investigating whether a medical emergency contributed to a high-speed crash that killed a Missoula man in downtown Libby Thursday evening. Drugs or alcohol were not considered factors Friday, pending toxicology results from the Montana State Crime Lab, according to MHP Capt. Duane K. Bowers. Taylor Ray Alford, 31, was killed 5:07 p.m. Thursday when his car crashed into an overhead traffic light post at the intersection of Highway 2 and Idaho Avenue in Libby. Moments before, Alford reportedly had accelerated to about 100 mph in the 25-mph zone in front of Rosauers before crossing into the opposite lanes of traffic and then swerving to the right across all four lanes before striking the light post and catching fire, wrote Bowers in a Friday morning news release."

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."
