Capt. John Robertson of the 80th Operations Support Squadron was in a T-6A Texan II aircraft at Sheppard Air Force Base when the aircraft’s ejection seat activated.

The Air Force said Robertson died from the injuries he suffered in the accident.

“This is a devastating loss for Captain Robertson’s family and loved ones, and for the entire 80th Flying Training Wing,” said Col. Mitchell J. Cok, the acting wing commander. “Captain Robertson was a highly valued Airman and instructor pilot. Our deepest condolences go with all who knew and loved him.”
