Ya, That's not supposed to be possible... lol.. That guy had some big nadds.

They tried it in a slimulator also and it would not fly (so I heard somewhere).

Amazing what giant shitboxes will do and acutally fly when fitted with fly by wire technology huh?

Now, take a mechanical system (A-10) and chop its wings, YES WINGS, off and that damn thing will bring our boys home every time!

i'm guessing that had he knew his wing were gone, he wouldn't have made it back.

Well, he did say that if he had known, he probably would've ejected and not attempted the landing.

Very cool vid. :bigthumb:
