A Solar Flare on 10 September 2014 May be Related to F/A-18C Hornets Crashing in the Western Pacific Ocean

Journal Title: ASIAN JOURNAL OF NATURAL & APPLIED SCIENCES - Year 2015, Vol 4, Issue 2

Abstract

Two F/A-18 Hornets from Carrier Air Wing 17 embarked on the aircraft carrier USS Carl Vinson crashed at 5:40 (UT) about 290 miles west of Wake Island on 12 September 2014. A large geomagnetic storm simultaneously occurred due to the X-Class solar flare at 17:46 (UT) on 10 September 2014. It can be doubted that this large geomagnetic storm may be a potential reason of the crashing.
