IAF pilot who landed an F15 with one wing
This one?

1983 Negev mid-air collision - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

He was later quoted as saying "(I) probably would have ejected if I knew what had happened." However, he also (incorrectly) stated that above a certain speed, the F-15 acted "like a rocket" and didn't need wings.
When to pull the handle, when not to?
