Downed F-117 pilot reconciles with his foe

Tue Nov 06, 2012 5:35 am

Interesting story on the BBC website about a shot-down USAF F-117 pilot Dale Zelko and the Yugoslav missile commander who brought him down in 1999, and their reconciliation.

On a WIX theme, beyond the history element it also mentions the wreckage of Zelko's F-117 is now on show at the Belgrade museum.

Regards,

Great story. I've seen the F-117 pilot on TV several times so this was a nice follow up.
