Sheppard Air Force Base

Capt. John Robertson, an instructor pilot from the 80th Operations Support Squadron at Sheppard Air Force Base, was injured...

The pilot's death marks the latest incident with the T-6 and comes on the heels of a grounding of the aircraft two years ago...

Some U.S. Air Force units have instituted a buddy system that groups individuals into cohorts.

The crash occurred shortly before 2 p.m. near Lake Waurika, Oklahoma, roughly 40 miles from the training base.

Both the pilot and co-pilot were able to eject from a T-6 Texan II trainer that crashed in Oklahoma on Wednesday.

The U.S. Air Force on Monday directed its active-duty wing commanders to hold a one-day pause to conduct a safety review.
