Liu Huiqian said at the meeting that the aircraft fell into the sea while conducting a basic ground-based bombing course in the afternoon. The weather at the scene is visibility, and can visualize the sky and sea surface, which meets the subject standards. Taiwan's "Air Force Command" has ordered the suspension of all combat training tasks of the F-16 aircraft.
According to the Liberty Times, as for the relevant information about the accident aircraft, Liu Huiqian said that the fighter aircraft was released on July 24, 1998 and had no major faults in flight so far. However, he mentioned at the press conference that this military aircraft had human negligence, that is, the accidental lifting of the landing gear caused light damage, and there was no problem with the training and training of all combats after the repair.
"Central News Agency" said that firefighters and coast guard personnel used telescopes to search the sea on the sea near the north dike of Aogu Wetland. There were helicopters in the air to search the sea and found suspected oil pollution on the sea, but it was difficult to search at sea because of the harshness of walrus . Due to the dim sky, the Taiwan military has launched flares on the spot to assist in the search and rescue operations. The walrus is currently poor, and the high tide has increased the difficulty of search and rescue.
