@mrkhoros I never said that they were designed to fly on one wing. If you would read my comment i said: "CAN fly on one wing". Only a flaming idiot would DESIGN a plane with one wing, as you are correct in that the flight characteristics of a one-wing plane would be outrageously abnormal. Now I will give you the benefit of the doubt, and lets say they did make this up, why would they just decide to blow the wing off of one of 83, on average $30.5 million(USD), F-15s? I know the Israelis may do
@pouyansaki .....the video wont cheat on you but your wife will, with an American Fighter Pilot, because she wants a real fuck`n......and that would be me, and when im done fucking your wife i`ll shoot you and your junk russian mig-29 out of the sky and then go fuck your wife again, because she will be waiting on the tarmac when i land.
Israelis lie a lot to make others think they are mighty ... not gonna believe this also History channel is full of BS ... so when two untrusted sources are claiming something extraordinary happened the logical thing to do is not to believe them :D
this obviously is fake .. no rules of physic would be applied to such a plane .. would u believe if id told u i saw a bird flying with one wing ? no wonder the plane is awesome and everything but as a pilot i cant imagine such a thing could be real .. also israel has a small tendency to make up such stories .. they have done it in the past to show U.S. they level of sophistication and usually they always fail
@popsflying evidently trolling in pages and making stupid comments make you one .. doesn't it ? u cant even fly a kite with one wing .. make a paper airplane with one wing that flies straight and send it to airbus technology and invention dept. let them have a good laugh about it sonny boy
LOL i would have hated to have been the crew cheif of that jet.. about a month ago i caught a 15 that had both tires blown out on landing. but this... this is a nightmare.
im in tech school in usaf to be a crewchief on 16s but for basic knowledge ( fighter) classes were mixed with the 15 and A10 students he said its true and he said the a10 has also landed with out a wing before the breifing i recieved today was about this situation and i looked it up
The F-15 is desinged so the whole body acts as a lifting surface not jsut the wing as with most aircraft. it is desinged that way to help it manuver and climb which was its purpuse in being built. in my opinion that combined with the verticle stabilizers and excessive forward airspeed kept it under control. there is also another instance of this that we were breifed on in flight school but i saw no pics. prett y awsome jet i must say.
IMO,I think what helped save the day was that the horizontal stabilizer on the same side wasn't taken out in the colision. It kinda acted like a second wing long enough to land.
If it were taken out along w/ the right wing,the Eagle would have spun out of control & the crew would had either ejected or died.
@evidesmc No ofcourse not. However, this pilot levelled out and controlled the plane. If i'd regained control myself then i would eject straight away.
This story is true. A plane CAN land on one wing if the wing loading can hold up. Also said in the video he landed at twice the speed of regular landing. For those of you who know nothing of planes... sit down, shut up, and hurt yourself.
@airforcetobe4 rag caused by the still remaining wing would simply put the plane into one hell of a spin, and NO they are NOT designed to fly on one wing. This story has the same level of credibility as iraqi weapons of mass destruction. Fairy tales are fairy tales no matter how hard you try to explain them via "freak aerodynamic occurrences" . stupid morons like u with such make believe stories wont fool the world anymore .. so GTFO
OK, so let's say it really happened. Why bother to make such crudely faked video as supporting entertainment? The stills at the end look okay...no-one had a video camera afterward?
I totally agree with you, the amount of truth was high enough to make a real documentary without patching scenes up to the real footage. I guess this video also deserves a little award for visual effects ;)
intersting to note the positions of the engine exhuast nozzles at the very end. He clearly knew he needed alot more power on the right, that's what kept that side of plane lugging along. Great job!
You all are wrong. This story is in fact true. It's a miracle, I know. But it did happen. It sure did happen. It was on the history channel AND the news.
The flying footage is nothing to do with the actual incident. Stock footage is used along with graphic altered footage to re-create the incident. They used footage of USAF F-15 Strike Eagles to represent the Israeli F-15.
Drag caused by the still remaining wing would simply put the plane into one hell of a spin, and NO they are NOT designed to fly on one wing. This story has the same level of credibility as iraqi weapons of mass destruction. Fairy tales are fairy tales no matter how hard you try to explain them via "freak aerodynamic occurances"
You are right, It was not designed to fly with one wing. But it still did it. And the incident is common knowledge in every Air force that uses the F15. It is documented and true.
Iraq did have weapons of mass destruction during the 80s and 90s and it was believed that they had some after. Saddam Hussein did use weapons of mass destruction during his war with Iran.
If you dont believe a plane can fly after severe damage, look up photos of the many aircraft that limped home after collisions and anti aircraft damage during World War Two. This IS possible but to get away with it depends on so many varying factors (weight, speed, power, skill, remaining body surfaces) that trying to repeat it would probably be impossible. Its a freak aerodynamic occurance that might not have happened had just one more square metre of wing been missing in one critical spot.
It is possible. I am a private pilot, and this is possible, but this ability depends on the aircraft. The F-15, like greatplanesman said, generates lift from the wings and the fuselage. The tail generates lift as well, but the leading edge is in a slipstreme caused by the wing, so it wouldn't generate lift with a wing there. You can also adjust the engines. The engines, just by producing thrust, push the aircraft up and forward. You can't do this on an F-15, but you can adjust how much
power is coming out of each engine. And draugruin, the lift issue can be solved by deploying negative flaps and full ailerons to create equal lift on both sides, and then you can control the plane with the rudder and the elevators. Like I said, it is possible, but it depends on both the plane's design and the pilots skill level.
You are correct sir. And if you notice the last picture in this video, you will see that the port and starboard engines are very obviously adjusted for different levels of thrust to compensate!
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
This is fake.
The moment caused by the attached wing, even if only at 200 knots, would cause the plain to be uncontrollable. Ailerons/flaps/etc would do jack shit compared to the moment caused by the lift on the wing.
Oh, and the History Channel has never been a credible source. Ever.
I was an F 15 Ashop avionics in the AF. This story was posted in our squadron along with photos of one of our planes that came back with major wing damage too, Missing about half the wing and a major chunk of vertical stab...It happened, dont beleive everything you see on tv. But this one is real.
my grandpa was in WW2 and he flew the p-47 thunderbolt and he got his left wing shot off and he didnt want to eject so he landed the plane with one wing on his plane. and i still have that video. ill try to put it up on youtube
wow, I never dreamed you could fly never mind land a fighter plane with one wing. Cheers to the engineers who designed this aircraft. I'm not so sure an F-16 pilot would have done as well.
Firstly, the F-15's fuselage also generates lift. Reason why the plane leveled out after he punched afterburners is that he either rolled full right aileron (to keep the left wing up), or the fusleage generated enough lift on that side to allow the pilot to still fly the aircraft, even though one wing was missing. Even so, it would have been very difficult to stay airborne with an aircraft of this size.
if this is real im guessing that the wing didnt come off untill the aircraft was going slowon the ground or at least on the ground. watch the video of the bomb that falls off of on plane and hits the wing of the other. just a small amount of the wing comes off but the plane goes quickly into an agressive role
Thank you for this video. It shows the training of the Israel military pilots. The US made fighter and the Lord watching over this country of Israel. Again, Thank you for posting this.
Is not the only plane with this type of experience.
It is a movie about a MIG29 that lands without a large par of the wing. The "body" of a F15 is actualy a rocket with engines on both sides . The wings are part of portability but the wings are not the only ones that kept the plane in the air . The body and the engines body do the same thing as the wings. In this case the worst was the fact that the control parts from the wing dissapeared. The twice of speed was necesary to compensate the loss.
I go with you, the body of these planes is a large wing. So the real wings on the side are more to control the machine, and to allow extreme manouvres, than to give updraft. The central body acts as wing itself, giving huge updraft. The most critical thing was looing all controls AND the imbalance of updraft as the damage was one-sided, imbalanced.
But with more speed.... it works. Good machine, good pilots.
All U.S. built fighters have tail hooks, even the Air Force. Used for emergency landings. I spent 20 years in Naval Aviation and witnessed all sorts of arrested landings both at sea AND ashore.
what the pilot siad is actually true, no other aircraft can fly with the much surface taken out, the F-15 was different, take a look at the remaining wing, the surface is fairly large enough for it to land, but how do you roll or navigate the airplane with one of the two wing taken out
You say the clips are fake (which i think is obvious since there is no reason why there would be cameras everywhere right when an accident occurs) but the pictures at the end are actual photographs of the damaged F-15 right?
Tisk tisk Gigilo. The goal of language is to convey a meaning, not necessarily adhere with ultimate precision to the rules of grammar. "Landing on one wing" pretty much means the SAME THING as "landing with one wing" to most people - even though the grammar is imperfect. You must have had the same Catholic nuns I didl they were pretty severe about following all the 'rules' of language as opposed to common colloquial usage.
I disagree. The title implies that the plane landed on the wing vs on the landing gear. The proper description would be "F-15 lands with only one wing".
that's USA for you. tough plane. an i do believe it, you still have the aileron on the other side, less weight on the side the wing is missing, and elevator and rudder still work normal. if you use all those properly, it could still fly, though i don't know how long before you run out of fuel. and you have to be going fast, too.
Ejection is a very dangerous procedure. If you think what's actually going on, it's amazing the human body deals with it as well as it does. And no I agree, though it is something I have never tried, it's definately not something I would consider to be fun.
Saw this video on the tv some time ago. I remember them trying to figure out how the aircraft stayed aloft and moreover controllable! A guy from McDonnell Douglas looked at the aircraft and immediately assessed that the damaged was caused by a taxiing accident. Believe the discussion which followed detailed the lifting body design of the aircraft enabling the pilot to maintain control once he recovered from the departure following the collision.
yea i saw this in the paper a few years ago, it did actually happen, and yes the vids in the film are fake, they werent exactly expecting this to happen with all their high quality cameras set up were they...
my thoughts exactly big5824. of course they had to make the show... can't exactly "expect" someone to go up in the air and try to do that shit over just to make it real...

The wings are part of portability but the wings are not the only ones that kept the plane in the air . The body and the engines body do the same thing as the wings. In this case the worst was the fact that the control parts from the wing dissapeared. The twice of speed was necesary to compensate the loss.

I go with you, the body of these planes is a large wing. So the real wings on the side are more to control the machine, and to allow extreme manouvres, than to give updraft. The central body acts as wing itself, giving huge updraft. The most critical thing was looing all controls AND the imbalance of updraft as the damage was one-sided, imbalanced.
But with more speed.... it works. Good machine, good pilots.

15s got a tail hook?????

All U.S. built fighters have tail hooks, even the Air Force. Used for emergency landings. I spent 20 years in Naval Aviation and witnessed all sorts of arrested landings both at sea AND ashore.

No cos the film crew weren't there waiting to film on the day when the accident happened so they made reconstructions.

this isn't not true flim.
cupie1217 3 years ago
what the pilot siad is actually true, no other aircraft can fly with the much surface taken out, the F-15 was different, take a look at the remaining wing, the surface is fairly large enough for it to land, but how do you roll or navigate the airplane with one of the two wing taken out

So not fake.
Benjiben69 3 years ago
Correct. Most of clip comprises reconstruction footage (like you said, cameras aren't everywhere). The incident did take place though.
Benjiben69 3 years ago
You say the clips are fake (which i think is obvious since there is no reason why there would be cameras everywhere right when an accident occurs) but the pictures at the end are actual photographs of the damaged F-15 right?

Maybe if you're an English teacher but the majority of the English speaking world should understand this. Very finicky.
Benjiben69 3 years ago
Yes I agree it's correct. If it was going to physically touch down on a wing the title would be 'f-15 crashes'
Benjiben69 3 years ago
Tisk tisk Gigilo. The goal of language is to convey a meaning, not necessarily adhere with ultimate precision to the rules of grammar. "Landing on one wing" pretty much means the SAME THING as "landing with one wing" to most people - even though the grammar is imperfect. You must have had the same Catholic nuns I didl they were pretty severe about following all the 'rules' of language as opposed to common colloquial usage.
ZenZaBill 3 years ago
I disagree. The title implies that the plane landed on the wing vs on the landing gear. The proper description would be "F-15 lands with only one wing".

inproper english for title is should b f-15 land with 1 wing not on 1 wing sound like he landed on the wing
gigilo159 3 years ago
actually for flight terms, it is correct.

that's USA for you. tough plane. an i do believe it, you still have the aileron on the other side, less weight on the side the wing is missing, and elevator and rudder still work normal. if you use all those properly, it could still fly, though i don't know how long before you run out of fuel. and you have to be going fast, too.

lucky.
if he had hit the plane with the body of his jet rather than the wing, bye bye jew boy.

Ejection is a very dangerous procedure. If you think what's actually going on, it's amazing the human body deals with it as well as it does. And no I agree, though it is something I have never tried, it's definately not something I would consider to be fun.
Benjiben69 3 years ago
ive heard the human body has a limit of ejections before you do severe internal damage.
AlExXx364 3 years ago
Ejecting isnt all as fun as it may seem.
When your ejected from a fighter jet you must be fired from the cotpit quicker than the plane is going longwards.
This speed compresses your spine and you need to be stretched out on a bed for nearly a week.
Most pilots normally retire after 1 or 2 pre-ejections, without choice as it can/will be serious later in life.
I know this becuase of somone i work with trained to be a RAF fighter pilot but failed it and is now flying navy helicopters.

Saw this video on the tv some time ago. I remember them trying to figure out how the aircraft stayed aloft and moreover controllable! A guy from McDonnell Douglas looked at the aircraft and immediately assessed that the damaged was caused by a taxiing accident. Believe the discussion which followed detailed the lifting body design of the aircraft enabling the pilot to maintain control once he recovered from the departure following the collision.

Look. This was made in a COmputer program. This isn't actual footage of the collision, but the picture might be.
You should watch the show called "Dogfights" (planes fighting). It's really good.
