    Default How big is yours?

    How big does a hole have to be before it's a crater?

    FORT INDIANTOWN GAP, Pa. (AP) - Military officials are investigating why a jet fighter accidentally dropped a 25-pound practice bomb on a hiking trail a mile from its intended target in southeastern Pennsylvania.

    No one was injured when the grapefruit-sized, cast-iron bomb fell on the trail Oct. 13 during a training mission for a pair of A-10 Thunderbolts. The bomb created a crater about 6 inches wide in the trail along an abandoned rail line in Schuylkill County.

    At least one hiker was close enough to hear the thud.

    China is pretty good at it...they are on par with air force mishaps...any time you have a large air force accidents will occur...be it friendly fire, wrong targets, etc. Russia I still think holds the record though...but "official" records are a pain to verify. Under the communist government accidents where pretty much kept silent or never recorded...had to keep up the image and all. Same for China really.
