Narrative:66-0249 (c/n 1911) "ZF" with 31st TTW, 308th TFTS, based at Homestead AFB, Florida: crashed into Gulf of Mexico, south of Tyndall AFB, Florida on March 22, 1985. Both crew ejected. One was later named as (pilot) Capt. M. Bauhuin.
On the 18th of November 1968 whilst flying for the 433 TFS, this aircraft was struck my 37mm anti-aircraft fire whilst returning to RTAB Ubon. This damaged the aircraft and the pilot ordered the WSO to eject. After ejecting the pilot noticed the aircraft become more controlable and thus made a safe return to Base for a wheels up landing.
