YouTube - F-15 landing with one wing. Real story.

This one isn't fake. F15 minus a wing. They hardly have any wings anyway?!

Why don't you grow some thicker skin? You really find "someone please tell him" to be "bloody offensive?" Wow.

The video has been posted ad nauseum all over the internet. It's a fake video. It was spammed globally via email, and has been discussed to death on pprune and every other aviation web site for the last week.

It was put together by Killathrill clothing company. The same folks that brought you this...

YouTube - Ferias na praia

However, in case you're one of the five people globally who've missed it in the last week or two...

But I didn't say that, you see...because you weren't there to put the words in my mouth. Therefore, I was left to use my own words, including really offensive ones, such as "please."

The horror!

Seems the only one who's not happy is you. Are you through beating the dead pony?

Don't worry, Sandhurst is a bit of a backwater! They get a bit uppity there because they think they're a bit special as it's the 'West Point' of the UK. Shout loudly in the High Street and everybody snaps to attention! Sense of humour bit unrefined though.

Being stuck in the office at work and unable to access the links on the prune site, i saw a program on Discovery Wings a couple of years ago, i think it was Battle stations,on the F15 in Isreali air force service, where an incident involving the loss of most of the port wing was featured, the pilot was being interviewed alomgside the damaged a/c. He said the only way he kept it airborne was to go flat out.unbelievable.
