Some of those images are not real. The second, third and fourth images on the left are mocked up images. The History Channel did a reconstruction of events with the pilot recounting the tale. They even mocked up a shot from the pilots perspective with fuel streaming from the torn off wing. If you look closely at these images that I mentioned you will see the discrepancies of the fuel tanks between the various shots. The film editors simply used stock footage for the flying shots and altered them to fit in with the pilots narrative.
