      There’s a waiting period after the loved ones have been notified before they release the names

      Maybe I’m missing something but doesn’t the article states the planes were in the ground and nobody was injured?

        one of them crashed into the ground after two crashed midair, it mentioned a flight crew of 6 dead.

        I want to know if i need to throw some ribs on. One of my oldest friends married a KC10 pilot. We ran cross country on rival teams in high school. Our parents always wanted us to date. Well, okay until my parents met my wife like a year before we started dating. And did not tell me jesus mom and dad help a dude out. Her mom played piano for one of my choirs.

          I know more personal details about you than I do some people I’ve known for over a decade. Hope your friend is alive.

          I remember the days when you could just check someone’s facebook to see if they were dead or not

            This was last week though. KSA airbase also included an expensive/irreplaceable AWACS destruction.
