This company got a big contract a couple years ago and have had a pretty good safety record until recently. In the last year they have lost three aircraft with two fatal.
Trying to remember, but was it ATA that used to fly the Kfir out of Mugu? Loved those little planes. They’d park them right below my office window. Had to go out and chock the wheels of one of them once when the Sana Ana winds started rotating one around like a weather vane..
I need to correct this post. They have had three mishaps, but the first was in 2010. They have lost an A-4, a Kfir, and this Hunter. The Kfir and Hunter were both this spring.
