More than half the instructor pilots, busy trying to teach others to fly, had "generalized anger" about the T-3, an Air Force psychologist reported. And the cadets were uneasy too. "With two accidents in two years, I'm not entirely sure it's completely safe," Cadet Daniel Ronneberg told investigators.
