  • F-35A, T/N 12-005053
    UNITED STATES AIR FORCE AIRCRAFT ACCIDENT INVESTIGATION BOARD REPORT F-35A, T/N 12-005053 58TH FIGHTER SQUADRON 33RD FIGHTER WING EGLIN AFB, FLORIDA LOCATION: EGLIN AIR FORCE BASE, FLORIDA DATE OF ACCIDENT: 19 MAY 2020 BOARD PRESIDENT: Colonel Bryan T. Callahan Conducted IAW Air Force Instruction 51-307 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY F-35A, T/N 12-005053 EGLIN AFB, FLORIDA 19 MAY 2020 On the night of 19 May 2020 at 2126L, the mishap aircraft (MA), an F-35A aircraft tail number (T/N) 12-005053 crashed on runway 30 at Eglin Air Force Base (AFB), Florida (FL). The MA was operated out of Eglin AFB, FL by the 58th Fighter Squadron (FS), 33rd Operations Group (OG), assigned to the 33rd Fighter Wing. The mishap pilot (MP) ejected safely but sustained nonlife threatening injuries. The MA, valued at $175,983,949, rolled, caught fire, and was completely destroyed. The MP set and held 202 knots calibrated airspeed (KCAS) throughout the approach and landing. The aircraft touched down approximately 50 KCAS fast, and was approximately 8 degrees more shallow than desired for landing, at a 5.2 degree Angle of Attack. The aircraft landing lasted approximately five seconds before the MP ejected. The nose of the aircraft drove down at a high rate of speed and the nose gear contacted the runway immediately after the main landing gear. Next, the MA experienced a significant nose-high bounce. After the initial bounce, the MP made stick inputs consistent with an attempt to recover and set a landing attitude. However, the MP’s stick inputs quickly fell out of synch with the aircraft pitch oscillations and aircraft control cycles.
