 Your facts regarding the EA6B incident are completely incorrect. The  crew
was involved in a low level, authorized mission that followed  the flight
plan. The military routinely conducts such training to  achieve and maintain
flight skills required for combat. The altitudes  and air speeds were within
the expected limits for such training. The  cause of the accident was that the
gondola cable was not depicted on  the DOD charts provided for the aircrew.
All the facts of the  incident were throughly reviewed by the Court Marshal
and the pilot  and other aircrew were exonerated of all charges, except
concealing  evidence. To state that this is an example of "rogue" flying
behavior  is simply incorrect, unless you believe that routine low level
flight  training conducted by the USAF, USN and USMC constitutes "rogue"
 behavior.
