Pope Air Force Base Collision


A C-141 transport plane burns March 23, 1994, on Pope Air Force Base. An F-16 and a C-130 collided in mid-air and set off a chain reaction. The F-16 crashed into the C-141 on the ground. Burning fuel and debris hit paratroopers waiting to make a jump. The crash killed 24 Fort Bragg soldiers and injured about 100 others.
