According to an Air Force power point briefing provided to POGO, earlier this month at 0815 on April 10th, the controls on an F-22A at Langley Air Force Base showed that the aircraft’s canopy wasn’t locking. After several attempts at opening and closing the canopy, on the final try it locked and jammed – trapping the pilot inside. According to the briefing, the 27th Aircraft Maintenance Unit then “consulted Lockheed Martin and the F-22A System Program Office to determine alternative methods to open the canopy and extract the pilot.”
