A B-1 Lancer that made an emergency landing in Texas earlier this month blew at least one of its four cockpit escape hatches, but the ejection seat did not deploy, photos of the incident show.
The Dyess Air Force Base bomber experienced an “in-flight emergency†when it requested to land at Midland International Air and Space Port. Fire crews responding to the aircraft used foam on the plane, suggesting the crew had reported an engine fire.
All four crew members landed safely.
