UPD: The pilot of a T-2 training aircraft has been found dead after the plane crashed between the cities of Kalamata and Sparta a little before 9 am on Tuesday.
The two aircraft operators, both majors in rank, used the automatic ejection mechanism and abandoned the T-2 before it crashed. The co-pilot alerted the Air Force authorities about his location, according to sources. An Agusta Bell helicopter of the Air Force has already taken him to Kalamata where he is undergoing medical examinations.
