I think McCain crashed 5 airplanes, it's amazing he's made it this long.

I read his book several years ago - from what I remember it was 3. The first was a T-34B in training (either PNS FL or CRP TX), a navy T-33/P-80 he ejected from(forget the Navy name) in the Chesapeak Bay and then the A-4 ejection. I could be wrong just what i remember from the book.
 
It may be the stuff that presidents are made of, George the first lost three TBM's in one year.
 
I'm...I'm so...so embarrassed. Can't believe I forgot the Maverick. I was even the test projo (F-16) for the AGM-65 H/K in '02-'03. Dam* Raptor is already clouding my small brain...
 
One of my friends flies the 16 for a ANG unit, and there is a ex Hun pilot that visits/drinks with them sometimes. He told my friend as story about doing a strafing run on an AAA emplacement, resulting an explosion and then body parts hit the canopy afterwards.

Its actually posted in the thread about this on hotair.com website.
