Air Force insists penis-shaped flight path aimed at Russian base was not intentional

Air Force pilots who drew what resembled a penis in the sky pointed at Russian forces in Syria did not do so intentionally, the Air Force said in a statement last week.

The statement comes after social media users who follow flight paths on Flightradar24, a website dedicated to tracking planes around the world, noticed the flight path of the Air Force plane last week drew a long oval and two circles that resembled a penis pointed directly at Russian forces in Syria.

However, the Air Force says that the pilots, who were flying a refueling flight between Cyprus and the Syrian city of Tartus, acted appropriately during their flight, arguing the path was consistent with a path the giant tanker would take during refueling operations.
