I was on the USS Kitty Hawk in the early 90's, and we lost a couple F14's. I don't remember if it happened on the same West Pac or not. Still scary. We also had two guys sucked into air intakes......yikes.... but, somehow, the pilots shut down the engines quick enough? Seems crazy quick to me. The two men only had broken bones from what I remember.
