It seems an Atac Mirage F-1 crashed about 30min ago. First reports pilot is OK.
No news agency with this news yet. Was reported on an Arizona Aviation FB page so “must be correct!!!”
Video has surfaced where one can barely make out it was N633AX.

Re: F-1 crash near Luke AFB
Some other sources mentioned N633AX is involved. Mirage F1CR ex 653 FAF.

Re: F-1 crash near Luke AFB
The crashsite is near Luke, not Gila Bend, Buckley to be more precise.

A video shows a "desert camo" Mirage F1CR wreck with visible marks N633AX ( see https://aviation-safety.net/wikibase/275359 ).
