Has anyone ever seen an airplane crash debris field with no visible plane parts. OK, I’m not referencing 9/11. There are several sources of photo’s of the recent lost F-35 in South Carolina debris field. You certainly see a lot of downed trees and a pathway, but no plane debris. Could all the plane parts have been cleared prior to news photos, I think in less than 24 hours? Wouldn’t there be witnesses and news crews showing the clean-up? I’m sure this is now a dead story to be backshelved.

Hmm…looking at trees - those burn marks do not look consistent with the temperature scoring that a fire of that magnitude would cause.
Any frens in SC care to comment on what current fire danger is in the forests and how dry it is? Might provide some clues. At first glance looks like some stock photos from a crop duster
To be fair - if the plane ran out of gas the fire wouldn't be huge. I doubt it actually did, since the mission wasn't over and it "crashed" close to the area. It should've had enough fuel to complete their mission and return to base.
