[simpits-tech] Proof that the F-15 can fly with a wing missing...

[Ido Dekkers]

yup - and another one here landed with no nose - another A4 riped off his
entire front end.
the strange thing about that landing (no wing) was the the pilot didn't know
the wing was missing because there was a piece of alu  still there.
