One wing F15?

[ehwatezedoing]

Actually couple of years ago, a CF-18 came back in Cold Lake with a totally missing elevator.
Pilot went a bit too low during his bomb run, hit some debrits (and felt it) but otherwise the aircraft flew pretty well.

Wow it must have been a bad landing to do THAT much damage to the front of the aircraft

They're 2 different Hornets.

Anyone got a photo of ZE210?

There's a picture knocking about of an F4 taking off from a US carrier with its wing s folded.

but probably not what you mean.

An incredible recovery to Leuchars of a well broken jet.

Several F-8s took off with wings folded and then recovered safely, the ailerons being inboard of the fold. One pilot pushing zero gee and unfolding and locking them down before landing.

Rudderless DC3

During the South African Bush war a DC3 got it's rudder blown away by SA7 missile. Crew also managed to get it back with assymetric thrust etc. Maybe one of the old "Bosvarke" has a photo to post?

To me the most remarkable thing about that story is that an SA-7 managed to lock onto piston engined bird like a DC-3
