Two South Korea pilots feared dead in fighter crash

The F-15K Slam Eagle went down in the southern county of Chilgok, in North Gyeongsang province, on its way back to the Daegu Air Base after an hour-long mission."Bodies were found and we are checking their ID but both pilots are feared dead," the spokesman told AFP.No ground damage was reported, he said.The last crash involving a South Korean F-15K fighter was in 2006 when it fell into the Sea of Japan during a nighttime mission, killing both pilots.Last year, an F-16D fighter crashed in North Gyeongsang but its two pilots ejected to safety.South Korea's air force first introduced the F-15K, made by Boeing, in 2005. It operates more than 60 F-15Ks.
