Initial investigations prove inconclusive, as the team finds no rational reason for why the aircraft lost control. The pilot claims wind shear, but the flight lead, who was also the base commander who once instructed Harm, disputes that. To finally determine the facts, Harm takes a Tomcat up to fly the exact same sortie, with Mac in the backseat as a passenger and his old instructor as flight lead. On the flight back, Harm notices that his instructor has some minor difficulty landing his plane. This makes Harm suspect that something else caused that crash - and that something could very well torpedo the career of his former mentor.
