shows an Israeli pilot who has a midair collision and manages to bring his aircraft in to land (unbeknown to him at the time) with ONE wing.

Wow!

f-15's are my all time favourite!

F1-5's, motorcycles, woodwind, kindness....... you're not one of there mythical "balanced" people are you

Good video. One wing explains the rolling... the story is almost unbelievable.

I guess an F15 is the Tonka toy of the skies.

I may be wrong but I seem to recall the air intike is also desinged to act like a wing.

and the tail plain is pretty boofy.

look up 'lifting bodies'... the shape of the F-15's fuselage creates lift as it is pushed through the air.
