A-10 MidAir Kills One Pilot

But One Bails Out Safely

Capt. Eric Palaro died Dec. 4 in a mid-air collision involving two A-10 Thunderbolt IIs about 100 miles northwest of Las Vegas over the Nevada Test and Training Range.

Palaro, from the 81st Fighter Squadron at Spangdahlem Air Base, Germany, was participating in a training exercise. Maj. Scott Kneip, an instructor with the U.S. Air Force Weapons School A-10 division, ejected from his aircraft and is in good condition.

The accident occurred at approximately 2 p.m. Both aircraft were assigned to the 57th Wing, at Nellis AFB. A board of Air Force officials will investigate the accident.
