F-22 flygere på 60 Minutes

IG report on F-22 pilots expected soon


The Defense Department inspector general is set to complete its report on two F-22 pilots who spoke out more than two years ago about oxygen problems with the jet.

Following pressure from Rep. Adam Kinzinger, R-Ill., and Sen. Mark Warner, D-Va., the Pentagon told the lawmakers the report should be finished this month, though Kinzinger told Air Force Times he wants it sooner.

The Virginia Air National Guard pilots, Capt. Joshua Wilson and Maj. Jeremy Gordon, lost flight pay and have been assigned to desk jobs since they appeared on "60 Minutes" in May 2012. They said they were afraid to fly the F-22 because of concerns that something in the plane was causing pilots to become disoriented or nauseous during flight.
