The pilot of a US Marines F-35 jet that went missing called emergency services from a South Carolina home where his parachute landed.
In audio from the call, obtained by the BBC, the pilot told a dispatcher that he was “not sure” where his $100m (£80m) plane was.
A local resident can also be heard calmly explaining that the pilot had landed in his backyard.
Debris from the jet was discovered on Monday, a day after it went missing.
In the four-minute call to the 911 emergency number, the resident of a North Charleston home can be heard telling a confused dispatcher that “we got a pilot in the house”.
“I guess he landed in my backyard,” the resident added. “We’re trying to see if we could get an ambulance to the house, please”.
Where could I find more information about this? Like actual scripts and responses for different scenarios.
I never thought about this before, but of course it’s the correct way to manage emergencies.
Quite fascinating.
Edit: here’s something neat

I don’t know what I mean. That’s what I’m asking.
I want to know more about how first responders do things.
If they’re following a protocol even when something as odd as this happens, I’d like to know what the protocols are
