The F-35 basing decision followed the Flint, Michigan, model – eyes closed to the foreseeable catastrophic consequences.
The Air Force Environmental Impact Study (EIS) says the F-35 is expected to have a crash rate like the F-22, which has a much higher crash rate than the F-16.
The number given in the EIS indicates that we can expect an F-35 crash in Burlington, on average, every 3 years.
