One pilot alive and in good shape driven away in a truck. Video on twitter.

This should be kept in news as it might be globally relevant.

About time someone stood up to China ... though any war on that front could end all global aviation and life as we know it

So the crash site is in mainland China? Like he almost returned and had to finally eject? (Not sure about this)

China seems to deny it as well. Interesting.

Looks like the sources for a shootdown came from India, who have their own biases against China.

It apparently crashed 1000kms from Taiwanese airspace. Both nations deny a shootdown. It’s a non event that’s being inflamed by people who want to inflame tensions.

This is a bit of anti-China sentiment given recent military escalations at the India/China border, nothing more. Fake news. Indians can't get enough of it.
