All other base operations have returned to normal,\u201d spokesperson Natalie Stanley said in an email Friday. She did not provide details on the nature of the problem or if the plane was damaged.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A photo published by the Italian news outlet Veneto Messenger that shows a jet nose-down in the grass is not of the plane in question, Aviano spokesperson Maj. Kaylee Ausbun said Sunday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Screenshots of a base alert <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/AFamnncosnco\/photos\/283460093902404\" target=\"_blank\">posted to social media<\/a> on Wednesday warned all employees and work centers facing the flightline, \u201cincluding sierra, zulu and tango loop,\u201d to shelter in place.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The airman who declared the emergency is part of Aviano\u2019s 31st Fighter Wing, the only U.S. Air Force fighter wing in Europe south of the Alps. It oversees two F-16 squadrons, the 555th \u201cTriple Nickel\u201d Fighter Squadron and the 510th Fighter Squadron, that are key to protecting NATO\u2019s southern region. It\u2019s unclear which squadron the pilot was assigned to.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The 555th is currently supporting NATO\u2019s air policing mission to fend off Russian pilots who behave erratically in or near the airspace of allied countries. More than 100 combat aircraft from the United States and Europe are flying nonstop patrols over NATO nations to protect Russia\u2019s war in Ukraine from spilling over into their territory.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Around 340 F-16s have been destroyed in mishaps since 1975, with 131 fatalities, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.safety.af.mil\/Portals\/71\/documents\/Aviation\/Aircraft%20Statistics\/F-16.pdf\">according to the Air Force Safety Center.<\/a> Three of the jets were in accidents in fiscal 2021, including one that was destroyed and its pilot killed.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Base operations have largely returned to normal, an Aviano spokesperson said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":7,"featured_media":71006,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_yoast_wpseo_meta-robots-noindex":"","_yoast_wpseo_meta-robots-nofollow":"","_yoast_wpseo_canonical":"","_acf":"","_yoast_wpseo_primary_category":67,"_jetpack_feature_clip_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","_smg_distribution_targets":{"2":{"categories":["your-military","news","left-column","home","ukraine","flashpoints"],"primary_category":"your-military"}}},"categories":[101,23,24,88,16,26,67],"tags":[],"coauthors":[3392],"class_list":["post-38000","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-daily-news-roundup","category-disaster","category-home","category-left-column","category-news","category-newsletters","category-your-air-force"],"acf":{"subheadline":"","legacy_arc_id":"SKLYJLGSXZHRFOYN6SEUURAQCI","arc_canonical_url":"\/news\/your-air-force\/2022\/03\/04\/f-16c-jet-suffers-in-flight-emergency-lands-safely-at-aviano\/","remove_feature_photo":false,"is_sponsored":false,"subtype":"","redirect_url":"","disable_inline_ads":false,"native_logo_pretext":"Presented By:"},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v26.0 (Yoast SEO v28.1) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-premium-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>F-16C jet suffers in-flight emergency, lands safely at Aviano - Air Force TImes<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Base operations have largely returned to normal, an Aviano spokesperson said.\" \/>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"noindex, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"F-16C jet suffers in-flight emergency, lands safely at Aviano\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Base operations have largely returned to normal, an Aviano spokesperson said.\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/one.sightlinemg.com\/airforcetimes\/news\/your-air-force\/2022\/03\/04\/f-16c-jet-suffers-in-flight-emergency-lands-safely-at-aviano\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"Air Force TImes\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:published_time\" content=\"2022-03-04T22:58:00+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:modified_time\" content=\"2026-08-07T21:06:35+00:00\" \/>\n<meta name=\"author\" content=\"Rachel S.
