The 1959 San Diego F3H crash was the crash of a United States Navy McDonnell F3H-2N Demon in San Diego, California, on 4 December 1959. The pilot, Ensign Albert Joseph Hickman from VF-121, chose not to eject from the stricken aircraft, piloting it away from populated areas of Clairemont, including an elementary school, saving "as many as 700 people" on the ground, according to one estimate. The aircraft crashed into a canyon, with the pilot being the sole fatality. Hickman has been memorialized in the naming of an elementary school and a sports complex in San Diego. Several decades later, a similar crash occurred in University City, a neighborhood north of Clairemont.

  • L'incidente dell'F3H di San Diego del 1959 fu l'incidente di un McDonnell F3H-2N Demon della Marina degli Stati Uniti a San Diego, California, il 4 dicembre 1959. Il pilota, il guardiamarina Albert Joseph Hickman della squadriglia di caccia , scelse di non espellersi dal suo velivolo, pilotandolo lontano dalle aree popolate di Clairemont, inclusa una scuola elementare, salvando "fino a 700 persone" a terra, secondo una stima. Il suo F3H si schiantò contro un canyon, e il pilota fu l'unica vittima. Hickman venne ricordato quando diedero il suo nome ad una scuola elementare e ad un complesso sportivo di San Diego. (it)
