*20 February - Two [[F-15 Eagle|F-15C Eagle]]s of the 58th Fighter Squadron, [[33rd Fighter Wing]], [[Eglin AFB]], Florida, collide over the [[Gulf of Mexico]] south of [[Tyndall AFB]], Florida, killing 1st Lt. Ali Jivanjee. Capt. Tucker Hamilton ejected from the other fighter and survived. An accident investigation released 25 August 2008 found that the accident was the result of pilot error and not mechanical failure. Both pilots failed to clear their flight paths and anticipate their impending high-aspect, midair impact, according to Brig. Gen. Joseph Reynes, Jr., Air Combat Command's inspector general who led the investigation. <ref>"Pilot Error Blamed", Air Force Magazine, November 2008, Volume 91, Number 11, page 20.</ref>

  • 21 February – A Russian Navy Antonov An-26, 07 Red, crashes one mile (1.5 km.) short of runway at Lakhta Airfield, near Archangelsk, northern Russia, during an emergency landing. Of the 20 people on board, 17 were killed.[12]
  • 2 March - An F-14 Tomcat from the carrier USS John F. Kennedy crashes into the Mediterranean Sea near the Greek island of Crete, killing its pilot. [13]
  • 8 March - An F-14A-60-GR Tomcat, upgraded to Block 130 standards, BuNo 158618, of VF-211, based at NAS Oceana, Virginia Beach, Virginia crashes into the Arabian Sea after a failed attempt to land on the carrier USS John C. Stennis. The Navy said both crew members were pulled from the water by a rescue helicopter shortly after the accident. Neither appeared to be seriously injured. Their names were not released. [13]
  • 9 March - A Portuguese Air Force F-16 crashes in Monte Real, Portugal, while practicing acrobatic maneuvers, killing the pilot.
  • 20 April - During the Point Mugu air show (Point Mugu, California), Navy pilot Commander Michael Norman and radar intercept officer Marine Corps Captain Andrew Muhs are killed when their McDonnell-Douglas QF-4S+ Phantom II (built as F-4J-34-MC), BuNo 155749, stalls and crashes after pulling away from a diamond formation. Both eject but chutes do not have time to deploy. The Navy report states in part: "The cause of this tragic accident was the failure of the pilot to manage the energy state of the aircraft, and then to recognize a departure from controlled flight at low altitude, and apply the NATOPS recovery techniques."[14] This Phantom II was credited with a MiG-17 kill 10 May 1972 with VF-96. [15]
  • 3 May - An Indian Air Force Mikoyan-Gurevich MiG-21 pilot ejects after takeoff, with the aircraft crashing into a Jalandhar bank building, killing eight on the ground (see 2002 Jalandhar India MiG-21 crash).
  • 2 June – An Angolan Armed Forces Mil Mi-17 helicopter crashes in poor weather killing 20 of the 25 on board. Among those on board were top military officials that were going to attend a disarmament ceremony by UNITA rebels.
  • 27 July – A Ukrainian Air Force Su-27UB Tragedy at Lviv airshow. During the airshow an Su-27 crashes on the ground killing 85 spectators, 5 of them children. 199 were injured. Pilots managed to eject, but the plane crashed on spectators watching the airshow from the ground. The plane lacked the altitude to escape the crash, and it hit the tribune and fell on the ground. As stated by Ukrainian Defense Ministry, the crash was caused because of engine failure. Pilots, unit commanders later jailed. Footage of this accident is widely available on the web.
  • 19 August – A Russian Air Force Mil Mi-26 Halo helicopter is shot down by Chechen rebels using a portable SAM, probably an Igla, in Khankala, Russia. Of the 152 on board, 118 are killed.[16]
  • 3 October - United States Navy F-14A-135-GR Tomcat, BuNo 162594, 'AD 136/36', of VF-101, suffers dual compressor stalls, both engines shut down, during routine training flight, crashing in the Gulf of Mexico on mission out of NAS Key West, Florida. Pilot Lt. Dave "Hound" Bassett and instructor RIO Lt. Craig "Ike" Turner eject safely at 5,000 feet and are rescued with only minor injuries by a UH-3 Sea King helicopter. On 5 May 2006, one of this Tomcat's tailfins is discovered on isolated beach W of Cork, Ireland, having floated 4,900 miles (7,900 km.) across the Atlantic. This was the sixteenth and last Tomcat lost by VF-101 during 30 years of operation.[17]

Both pilots ejected and were rescued from the Gulf by the fishing boat Niña, owned by Bart Niquet of Lynn Haven, Florida which was guided to them by the HC-144A sentry aircraft. A 1st SOW AC-130H and an MV-22 Osprey were also diverted to the scene to help search as were five Coast Guard aircraft and two vessels. An accident investigation released 25 August 2008 found that the accident was the result of pilot error and not mechanical failure. Both pilots failed to clear their flight paths and anticipate their impending high-aspect, midair impact, according to Brig. Gen. Joseph Reynes, Jr., Air Combat Command's inspector general who led the investigation. [51]
