my brother has been flying alot of refueling missions out of there ......... Unfortunately , when you consider the number of flights made so far in this war , we were due for a mechanical malfunction (which I'm guessing is the cause) . If mechanical then hopefully crew had time to bail and if close to Garcia they should be rescued .

From the little the General said about it, it seems like it could have involved refueling but they are giving no details yet. I hope your bro is safe.

Malfunction of some kind sounds right, especially based on location and the fact that probably only one or two countries could shoot it down.
