Total damage to the airplane, according to sources inside the Pentagon:
$1.28 million. Not only did the firefighters ruin the canopy, which
cost $286,000, they also scuffed the coating on the airplane's skin
which will cost about $1 million to replace.

That latter part was totally avoidable. I don't know why there wasn't a
crew chief there to tell the firefighters to lift the canopy off to the
side, rather than set it down on the airplane.

Photos are available in the current AvLeak. The firefighters taped a
rectangular area on the top of the canopy extending down the sides, then sawed
through the tape. According to AvLeak the canopy cost is $186,000; there was
no mention of any damage to skin covering in the article, but it undoubtedly
went to press Friday or so.
