美军电战机空中乱涂鸦 遭民众投诉
近日，在美国华盛顿州的上空，和平的蓝天突然出现了一些由飞机凝结尾画成的不雅图案
这图案惊动到当地的居民致电给FAA报告投诉，美国海军随后也认罪了，他们表示这是由
一架从惠德比岛海军航空站（Naval Air Station Whidbey Island）升空的战机干的。这
航空站的战机都是EA-18G电战机, FAA则表示因为没飞安问题所以不会追究。

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.
