It was yesterday in Alaska that a fighter plane c 17 crashed near the runway. The plane took off from the Elmendorf air force base at about quarter past six in the morning. It was carrying some cargo.
Four crew members were boarded on the c 17 plane. The crash took place when the place was heading towards runway and was some six quadrants away from it. When the crash took place, the air base was immediately sealed and not one from media was allowed to enter into it. A press conference was held in the morning at about twenty minutes past ten in which Dana Atkins, the lieutenant General of the Air Force Command of Alaskan NORAD said that after much investigation, they have not been able to figure out the reason behind c 17 crash and there are team further investigation on it.
Atkins told that he is not sure which four crew members were on the plane as they has been no record of it and they are trying their best to know about it from the officers who were on duty on Wednesday. He mentioned that the Air Force is busy these day practicing for the Arctic Air Thunder, a show which will be taking place on coming weekend in which pilots will show their plane driving skills. There are no reports of further causalities. It seems that the Air Force is not disclosing any thing about the plane crash unless they get done with the investigation. It is not confirmed that whether the ceremony will be taking place on weekend or not. Let us wait for more updates.
