Nothing to see here, move along.

Although I appreciate that the headlines should stick to facts ... on the other hand, it is getting more and more difficult to confirm exact facts these days. It seems to me the OP is accurate in its essence ... after declaring control of the air, the orange shitstain* has caused the loss of at least two aircraft, and presumably some of their crew.

* "orange shitstain" should always be read to include his voters.
