RCAF CT-156 Crash
Air Force pilots had 4 minutes to eject before crash near Moose Jaw, Sask. - Saskatchewan - CBC News
Two pilots who safely ejected from a plane before it crashed near Moose Jaw, Sask., Friday morning had four minutes to act after they noticed a problem, according to the Royal Canadian Air Force....... The pilots were flying a Harvard II in the vicinity of the base when it crashed at about 10:30 a.m. CST.
RCAF Col. Denis O'Reilly said it was an unplanned ejection. He said it took less than an hour to recover the pilots, who are alive with non-life-threatening injuries. One was taken by STARS Air Ambulance as a precaution, while the other was transported by ambulance. O'Reilly said one of the pilots could be released tonight, while the other would stay in medical care. Their names will not be released.......

Investigators from Ottawa will be arriving at the scene tonight or tomorrow. Authorities have closed the road adjacent to the crash site......

A Canadian Forces spokesperson told CBC at the time that the two pilots ejected due to an issue with the plane's landing gear.........
