The surviving family members of a Marine F/A-18D Hornet fighter jet crashing into their home were awarded 17.8 million dollars. The aircraft was attempting to land on a nearby base in San Diego when mechanical problems arose forcing the pilot to eject. The pilotless aircraft incinerated the family's home. The United States has admitted responsibility for the crash which took place in 2008. Four family members were killed including two infants.
