LETHBRIDGE, Alta. -- A military investigation has concluded that a sticky piston caused the crash of a CF-18 Hornet during an air-show practice in southern Alberta. The jet, flown by Capt. Brian Bews, lost thrust in its right engine while doing a manoeuvre about 90 metres above the ground at the Lethbridge County Airport in July 2010. The plane didn't respond and Bews was forced to eject seconds before the CF-18 crashed and exploded in a massive fireball. He suffered three compressed vertebrae.
