Two U.S. Navy EA-18G Growler jets collided midair during the second day of the Gunfighter Skies Air Show at Mountain Home Air Force Base in Idaho on Sunday, though all four crew members successfully ejected, the U.S. Navy confirmed to Fox News Digital.

Cmdr. Amelia Umayam, a spokesperson for Naval Air Forces, U.S. Pacific Fleet, said the two aircraft were assigned to Electronic Attack Squadron (VAQ) 129 out of Whidbey Island, Washington.

The midair crash happened at about 12:10 p.m. MDT while the aircraft were performing an aerial demonstration during the air show, Umayam said.

Umayam said all four air crew members successfully ejected and were being evaluated by medical personnel while first responders remained at the scene.

Prayers up for the aircrews. Ejection can be hard on a body.

Damn shame about the planes.

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.
