Vance Wing CC said landing in part of press conference he gave that was shown on NBC Nightly News.

Reservist IP and SP were killed. Thoughts and prayers to 340th FTG.

Wind was basically down the runway +/- 10 degrees at 15 ish with some gusts.

USMC form landings are optional to an unsatisfactory level in T-6s, but are required as part of the 38 syllabus as a dual only maneuver. I always tried to get students 1 or 2 in T-6s, if I thought they might go 38s or as a further confidence booster if they were just really good.

Here’s the latest as of 5pm CST from KOCO channel 5 in OKC
