Talk:List of accidents and incidents involving military aircraft (1950–1959)

The cite error on the article page is being caused by a bad ref tag on two entries: see diff1 and diff2. The changes in diff2 are supported by the entry of Walter Ray's name in the Book of Honor and the CIA Museum which has an item identified as:

Piece of Metal from A-12
During a routine training flight on Jan. 5, 1967, a fuel gauge failed to function properly, and the A-12 ran out of fuel only minutes before landing. The pilot, Walter Ray, ejected but was killed when he was unable to separate from the ejection seat before impact. The aircraft was completely destroyed. Its wreckage was found on Jan. 6, and Ray’s body was recovered a day later. This is a piece from that plane. 8 cm x 15 cm x 12.5 cm (H x L x W)

Maybe someone can find the source, or another source and fix the cite error. 75.69.0.58 (talk) 03:32, 31 August 2009 (UTC)

T-33 Found in Santa Monica Bay

On 9/28/2009, AP is reporting that a T-33A was found in Santa Monica Bay. The article states that research shows the plane took off on Oct 15, 1955 from Los Angeles International Airport. The List of accidents and incidents involving military aircraft (1950–1974) does not mention this. I couldn't find anything about it in the LA Times, either. The NTSB synopsys (http://www.ntsb.gov/NTSB/month.asp) only go back to 1962. Any ideas on this? Cxbrx (talk) 05:36, 29 September 2009 (UTC)

Ok, I found it in the LA Times "Los Angeles Times (1886-Current File). Los Angeles, Calif.: Oct 16, 1955. pg. a24, 1 pgs" Cxbrx (talk) 06:05, 29 September 2009 (UTC)

Completeness

This article ends its list of accidents in 1959, which is woefully incomplete. --THE FOUNDERS INTENT ^PRAISE _{GOOD WORKS} 12:44, 12 August 2010 (UTC)

We keep having to break the years into smaller pieces so that it is readable... Mark Sublette (talk) 08:44, 3 February 2011 (UTC)Mark SubletteMark Sublette (talk) 08:44, 3 February 2011 (UTC)

15 October 1958

Just saw this, where the words "Troop Carrier" and "[obliterated]S. Air [For]ce" are visible on the wrecked plane, along with what looks to me to be the USAAF insignia on the fuselage, and the photo is annotated in what looks to be a contemporary style with the above date, but I don't see the incident listed here. Curiosity alone leads me to wonder if it shouldn't be added! Cheers. Nortonius (talk) 15:01, 29 December 2010 (UTC)

Found it, and added it! Thanks so much for the heads up! Mark Sublette (talk) 21:14, 4 February 2011 (UTC)Mark SubletteMark Sublette (talk) 21:14, 4 February 2011 (UTC)

Hey that's terrific, no, thank you - great job! Nortonius (talk) 01:06, 5 February 2011 (UTC)
