11 Mar 2010 at 5:24pm
Two Marine aviators aboard a flaming F/A-18D reacted quickly enough to slow their jet so they could safely eject over the Atlantic Ocean, their commander said Thursday.Pilot Maj. Duane Litpak, 35, and weapons officer Capt. Jonathan Hutchison, 29, made it home safe Wednesday night after being plucked from a survival raft by a Coast Guard helicopter, officials said."Ejecting from a jet can be dangerous if not fatal. It is not uncommon to break limbs," said Lt. Col. Joseph Maybach, commander officer of the duo's Fighter Attack Squadron 224.Maybach said the air crew had "the presence of mind" to slow down the jet in order to prepare for the ejection. Both men had medical checkups and are home with their families, the commander said.An internal investigation will be conducted to determine what happened to the $29 million jet.

Chairman of SC college sues church denomination
11 Mar 2010 at 5:08pm
A top official with a private South Carolina college is asking a court to block the school's founding denomination from appointing new trustees, in what many see as a church versus college power struggle.The lawsuit accuses the governing body of the Associate Reformed Presbyterian Church of illegally removing nearly half of Erskine College's board earlier this month in a power grab. The lawsuit seeks to disband the interim board.The struggle between the liberal arts college and the denomination has been ongoing for more than three decades, said college spokesman Rick Hendricks.The school, founded by the Associate Reformed Presbyterian Church in 1839, has about 600 college students living on campus, and another 350 students attending seminary. It is located in Due West, a town of fewer than 1,300 people.The college's mission is to provide "an excellent liberal arts education in a Christ-centered environment where learning and biblical truth are integrated to develop the whole person."
