Anomaly Log Update #002 - Dr. Emilia Gates

Subject: Post-incident analysis - U.S. Naval Aviation Event “Flight 19” (Reference: Event VIC-0191)

This morning, I received a dispatch from OpVic Headquarters in Universe Mundus. A multiversal anomaly was detected: five aircraft, a U.S. Navy training squadron, vanished into a high-altitude Rift above the Atlantic. HQ flagged the event, Flight 19, as active and advised my team to prepare for a possible incursion.

However, here in Victoria, the story has already come to an end. I instructed ground teams to re-check a known crash site in Sector Charlie-7, where we had previously catalogued an aviation wreckage. A second pass with updated reference material confirmed it: the wreck is remnants of Flight 19.

The fuselage is fragmented and deeply oxidized, but the tail numbers match precisely. We recovered some human remains, those of a pilot who had attempted to make camp in a nearby cave. The other four aircraft remain lost to us, and perhaps still lost in time and space as well.
This discovery confirms a troubling conclusion: time does not flow consistently between our worlds.

While Flight 19 is only now being reported as active in Universe Mundus, they have already crashed and perished here in Universe Sinum. This is not the first time we've noted desynchronization between timelines, but the clarity of this case is unsettling.

Whenever I am able to send communications back across the rift, the Flight 19 incident must be reclassified from active recovery to historical closure. I will record the coordinates and remains for archival purposes.
