Watching news in Seattle. Reports of a person stealing a Q400 and flying over Puget sound and crashing on Ketron Island in the south sound. Flight Aware shows a Pierce County Sheriffs plane circling that island. F-15's scrambled from PDX.

Edit: Local news story:

Rode in one just two months ago from Seattle to Portland on my honeymoon. I can't believe this isn't on mainstream news outlets.

There was a big rap concert scheduled for tonight. Guess he missed the show after all.

He tried to do a barrel roll in this?



Ladies and gentlemen, take my advice - pull down your pants and slide on the ice.

He was a mechanic who said fuck it and went flying.

It’s a pile of rubble now burning in the woods in Pierce County. I’m seeing reports that one of the F-15s that was scrambled engaged it.

That explains the two fighters I heard and felt take off in a hurry before dark tonight. They were burning a lot of JP8 I can tell you that.

I'm across the Columbia river NE of PDX

Go to the 2 minute mark in the video ...



Go to the 2 minute mark and you’ll get the full story. Kid was suicidal. Glad he didn’t take anyone down with him.

I ignored this post because—even though I’m familiar with many aircraft—the term “Q400” meant nothing to me.
A more descriptive post title would have been helpful.

It's a Dash 8 but this model is the Q400. That's what it is...
