Reports on sowshul meeja of an American jet down in Basra area, Iraq. Pilot apparently found ok, having ejected. Rumours of some folks offering a bounty on his head, but it seems the authorities got to him in time.
EDIT: US CENTCOM says reports of a US fighter jet shot down over Basra, Iraq are "baseless and not true."
