8 August 1985 – A USAF LTV A-7D Corsair II, 69‑6198, of the 4450th Tactical Group, lost power, caught fire and crashed into Midwest City, a suburb of Oklahoma City, OK. Pilot Maj. Dennis D. Nielson stayed with the aircraft as he attempted to steer it towards a less-populous area before ejecting, but the fighter impacted a house, killing one, injuring one, with one missing, said a United Press International report. The second victim was found on 9 August. This unit was secretly operating Lockheed F-117 Nighthawks at this time. (1)
