  I checked into VA 42 framp on the weekend after the nose wheel incident. What the hell were they thinking? I was on the flight deck (a few planes away) when the plane captain pulled the canopy jetison pin. He said he felt resistance and really had to give it a tug.....and all of a sudden whoosh. The pilot (and b/n) were up on the wing doing their pre-flight and I believe got knocked down as the canopy flew into the folded wings. Nobody seriously hurt, plane captain rcvd burns and the aircrew were a little shaken up. I somehow came up with accident investigation photos of the incident (big 8x11 B&W pix).
