Where are the parallels? I don't see them...

They operate in real time Reapers on the other side of the globe, have constellations of all kinds of satellites, they know from my iphone that my parents have just visited, yet state of the art F-35 "disappeared"?

The big question here is was it a Martin-Baker ejection seat? If so, there's a limited edition high end wristwatch in it for the pilot: https://us.bremont.com/pages/explore-bremont-partnerships-ma...

Simple enough to google, yes it is:

A B-17 once landed at an airfield in Belgium without any crew on board. Just by chance it was pointing in the right direction, with the right amount of lift and drag and thrust.

This sounded like there had to be more to it but found this [1] and it makes it even weirder.

> The parachutes were still onboard and no indication of gunfire or blood caused by hostile attacks were seen on the plane.

I think there were experiments with RC B17s. I wonder if this was one and they chose to emergency land it but had to keep it a secret from the Belgian airfield crew.
