There are too many stories out there that corroborate the f-15 one wing landing!! As matter of FACT this is the second 'documented' F-15 one wing landing! Before you post your scepticism just do a search and save yourself a little embarrassment Last edited by Mr.Pickle; 10-20-2006 at 04:50 PM. |

As for Bill, that plane rolled knife edge on it's own, but he is good enough to recognize what was happening, and stop the roll, which would have turned into a spin, and fly in knife edge. That is a great piece of video. As for the F-15, the fuse does provide lift, just as our provide a little. I would imagine that the fly-by-wire controls might have also helped quite a bit though. |
