Military aircraft crashes near New Mexico's international airport in Albuquerque

The aircraft came down on the south side of the airport, Albuquerque International Sunport spokesperson Diana Lopez said. She said the nearby Kirtland Air Force Base was leading the investigation into the crash. The base did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
Lopez said the pilot was the sole person aboard and was receiving medical care.
Patrick White, who was driving in the area at the time of the crash, told The Associated Press that he saw an aircraft trailing low on the ground, kicking up a cloud of dirt and dust. He said the aircraft briefly disappeared from his line of sight, and then he saw “an enormous plume of black smoke.”
When he drove past the crash, he said he saw a piece of it “in the middle of the road.”

Alan Shoemaker: Sunny, smoky, windy Tuesday
We’ll see a sunny, smoky, breezy day, depending on where you are Tuesday. See the latest conditions at KOB.com/Weather.
ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. — It’s going to be a warm and dry Tuesday but it could also be a smoky and windy one, depending on where you are in New Mexico.
The smoke from the Blue 2 Fire near Ruidoso is likely to blow toward the northeast, compared to the east and toward Roswell like Monday was. However, it may shift as Tuesday night works in.
Smoke will also be a concern in northern New Mexico near the Inidos Fire. If you’re in Española and Abiquiu, you may feel the effects of the smoke.
No matter where you are, take precautions if you have a health condition that makes you more sensitive to smoke than others.
A few rain showers may come through the northern mountains. If you’re traveling toward the Texas or Oklahoma panhandles, there may be some strong storms so keep an eye out.
Otherwise, we will see a very warm Tuesday. A weak front will push in from the east and pick up the winds. Canyon winds could kick up in the central mountains, and in the Albuquerque metro around 12 a.m. to 1 a.m.
Meteorologist Alan Shoemaker shares all the details in her full forecast in the video above.
