美軍電戰機空中亂塗鴉 遭民眾投訴
近日，在美國華盛頓州的上空，和平的藍天突然出現了一些由飛機凝結尾畫成的不雅圖案
這圖案驚動到當地的居民致電給FAA報告投訴，美國海軍隨後也認罪了，他們表示這是由
一架從惠德比島海軍航空站（Naval Air Station Whidbey Island）升空的戰機幹的。這
航空站的戰機都是EA-18G電戰機, FAA則表示因為沒飛安問題所以不會追究。

原文:
ocal news outlets are reporting that pilots from Naval Air Station Whidbey
Island—the home of the Navy's fleet of EA-18G Growlers, as well as larger
maritime patrol aircraft—drew a massive male genitalia in the sky with their
contrails.
The phallic sky art occurred near the town of Omak, which is located in
north-central Washington, on the western edge of the Colville Indian
Reservation. The area lays under the expansive Okanagan Military Operating
Area (MOA). This restricted airspace is used regularly by Growler crews from
NAS Whidbey Island and by other military pilots visiting the area for
training purposes.
The Navy holds its aircrew to the highest standards and we find this
absolutely unacceptable, of zero training value and we are holding the crew
accountable."
The FAA told the station that there was nothing they could do unless there
was a safety risk and that they "couldn't police morality."
It's not like this type of controversy hasn't happened before, but I sure
wouldn't want to be taken out of an EA-18G Growler cockpit and put into a
C-130 cockpit "hauling rubber dog shit out of Hong Kong" for this unique
aerial display of self expression.
I guess we can just chalk this up to what has already been a season of
"stranger things" occurring in the skies over the Pacific Northwest.
