Stephanie Cosme, 32, was killed last year when she inadvertently walked into the rotating propeller of an aircraft in California

US air force civilian contractor had become disoriented recording data at an airport in California last year when she walked into a jet’s rotating propeller and was killed, officials said on Friday.

In a statement outlining the findings of a report into the contractor’s death, the air force materiel command said that 32-year-old Stephanie Cosme was mortally injured on 7 September when she inadvertently walked into the rotating propeller of an MQ-9A that was parked at Gray Butte airfield.

    They’re padding the report just like someone writing a paper on a subject they don’t understand.

    They know it was their fault for not training her properly, but as typical they try to deflect blame to anyone else.

    It’s pretty well understood that financial reports of public companies that aren’t trying to hide something are easier to read than ones from companies that are trying to hide something. I think this is another example of that concept.
