Two U.S. Navy T-45 Goshawk training aircraft collided in mid-air over Texas Monday morning, but fortunately no one was seriously injured.
The incident occurred over Ricardo at about 11 a.m., according to a message posted to the Chief of Naval Air Training’s social media accounts.
One Goshawk was able to land safely at Naval Air Station Kingsville, Texas, while the other aircraft’s instructor and pilot ejected about nine miles south of the base, according to the post.
