KF-16 Fleet Grounded After Plane Catches Fire at Seosan Airbase

Fortunately the pilot escaped unharmed:

 An Air Force pilot on Tuesday made an emergency exit from his KF-16 fighter jet during a takeoff run after detecting flames and smoke from the engine, forcing the Air Force to suspend all flights for aircraft inspection, officials said.

The fighter jet was moving on the runway to take off from the 20th Fighter Wing in the western city of Seosan at around 2:31 p.m. when the pilot spotted flames and smoke from the engine and ejected, according to the military.

He sustained no injuries, but the aircraft was damaged and is currently on the strip, it added.
