Hi Debbie--
I've never heard an explanation for the hydrazine, but it wasn't really an
emergency "landing". The Air National Guard pilot ejected & the plane hit
an unoccupied summer cottage. The hydrazine might have been in the
missiles (see story link below). The flight originated in the Madison
area, but the crash was not in Madison.

Re: [DCHAS-L] Chemical Safety Headlines From Google (14 articles)
Hey:
Last week, (I think) I read one of these where an F-16 made an emergency
landing (in Madison, WI) with hydrazine aboard. That seems incredibly
strange to me. Would anyone in the collective have an idea of why an F-16
would be carrying hydrazine? I assumed it was in the crew compartment but
the news story was typically sketchy. Hydrazine is an ingredient in
liquid rocket propellant but this still doesn’t make sense.
Any ideas?
Deb.
