Default F-18 Hornet crash

Last I heard, it was an F-18D landing at Miramar, 3 dead, one missing, might be different now though.

Its a tragedy. A mother, her two children and the grandmother were all killed by this accident. They just found the older child recently. The grandmother recently arrived from South Korea to help raise the kids, since one was only 2 months old. I feel real bad for the husband.

I've also read that this family recently moved into this house a couple of months ago.
