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

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.
