The pilot of a US Marines F-35 jet that went missing called emergency services from a South Carolina home where his parachute landed.
In audio from the call, obtained by the BBC, the pilot told a dispatcher that he was “not sure” where his $100m (£80m) plane was.
A local resident can also be heard calmly explaining that the pilot had landed in his backyard.
Debris from the jet was discovered on Monday, a day after it went missing.
In the four-minute call to the 911 emergency number, the resident of a North Charleston home can be heard telling a confused dispatcher that “we got a pilot in the house”.
“I guess he landed in my backyard,” the resident added. “We’re trying to see if we could get an ambulance to the house, please”.
Do you mean EMD cards?
I don’t know what I mean. That’s what I’m asking.
I want to know more about how first responders do things.
If they’re following a protocol even when something as odd as this happens, I’d like to know what the protocols are
There are lots of standardized card sets, mostly digital now. Here is New Jersey’s standardized cards: https://www.nj.gov/911/home/highlights/EMD Guidecards 2020 Final.pdf
