    I think this is quite alarmist. I’m sure they can buff that out.

      They’ll just attach the tail back to the remaining fuselage, it’s just gonna be a shorter plane, no big deal.

    Yeah, that’s not very typical. I’d like to make that point.

      I mean, sometimes the front falls off, but never the back.

        Well, there are a lot of these planes going around the world all the time, and very seldom does anything like this happen. I just don’t want people thinking that US Air Force E-3Cs aren’t safe.

    It’s just like when they say “1 person wounded”. Wounded might mean comatose for the rest of their lives, or without any limbs, or with horrible PTSD
