Mid-air collision over NAS Fallon yesterday

I just read that two F/A-18E's had a mid-air collision yesterday--story here. Luckily both pilots were uninjured, and one even landed his aircraft safely back at base. I can't find anything other than just the basic facts, which I guess makes sense since it only happened yesterday. Anyone have any more details on this?

EDIT: My bad, I only looked in the current news forum to see if this had been posted. Feddoc beat me to it in a section of the forum I didn't look in.

What was the legacy mishap?

A Marine Delta out of Beaufort had a fire and both crew punched over the Atlantic. They're both ok.

Good thing we have such a large surplus of Hornets.
