There was a well written dig/ story about this a while back. It gave all the details about the decommissioned attack submarine USS Richard B Russell. This sub fired the missile that was to take out President Trump’s plane. It talked about the guy who stole the Q400 was named Richard Russell just like the submarine and how he crashed the plane on the island and if I remember right (I may totally be misremembering) the Island I was owned by the whoever had bought the sub from the government. Does anyone have a link to that old post? It was a great read and was the embodiment of “ how many coincidences before it is mathematically impossible”.
Ketron Island. Richard B. Russel is the name of Sky King; a decommissioned submarine; and also the name of a very prominent US navy admiral during the 1960's, and ally to Lyndon B. Johnson.
I live out here in Washington. Ketron Island is where the Q400 crashed. The Hansville, WA Skunkbay Weather camera caught the missile launch [Q post]. Word was the Russell was harbored there. Problem: The water around the island isn't deep enough for a sub to navigate. My theory is they (clowns in anarchy) used a "lost" sub (Argentina lost one during a routine training exercise they never found?) and it being a diesel electric boat could easily slip in the San Juan deFuca Straight and launch a horizontal (torpedoes tube) missile. Now to further intrigue the sub story, I was employed by the Navy at the time at an isolated command and several months later we had an Officer temporary re-assigned to our command. The officer was a Commanding Officer of a sub who was "Relieved of Command".... I didn't get a chance to meet him and I had a photo of the weather camera and I was going to ask him what he knew about it just to watch his body language. His assignment lasted for about 7 days....
The Island is Ketron. You can see it while heading southbound on the 'Tacoma Narrows bridge', WA RT16. As I recall the incident, the airplane was being followed by two armed F-15 Eagles (Oregon Air Guard, Portland) as the Q400 was maneuvering the acrobatics. Word is when the plane burned in on the island, it wiped out an isolated internet server the DS operators were using gaming consoles (Xbox, Nintendo, etc.) for comms. I live out here and recall both incidents (missile launch & Bombadier plane crash) clearly. The plane made the local news (KIRO, KING, KONG, etc.) for a day or two, then total media silence afterwards. Even conservative radio talk shows stopped discussing it. Why? The 18 June 2018 @0400 missile launching was officially identified as a "search light" from a medical helicopter by the U.S. Navy which anyone who looks at the Skunkbay Weather camera photo (and posted in a Q drop) can clearly see it wasn't a helicopter flying horizontally..... but I digress....
also, that the island has ground-to-air defenses and it's own police force. The "crash" allowed Feds the authorities they needed to access the private island...
That sounds like a good read!
