Thanks to the resident in question, he was able to get on the phone with the emergency number 911, according to several minutes of the call broadcast Friday by media in the United States.

“Excuse me?” replied the operator.

Then the pilot himself speaks. “An army plane has crashed. I am the pilot. Relief work should be carried out,” he said. “I don’t know where the plane is. Maybe he crashed somewhere. I fired,” he continues.

When the operator asks him why he parachuted in, he says there was a “disorder” with his plane.

He explains that he feels better and that his back hurts. “I parachuted to the ground. Can you please send an ambulance? », he repeated before asking her if she had been informed of the plane crash in the area.

Not yet, she replies.
