Subject: F-15 with a fire in the right engine bay

 

This is an interesting scenario of an F-15 with a fire in the right 
engine bay.  The pilot shuts down the engine, but the fire continues.  
He decides to try to save the airplane and land at Whiteman.  You can 
see the airspeed and altitude tapes in the HUD and listen to his 
conversation.  He touches down at high speed but can't get it stopped 
and ejects at the departure end of the runway.  The pilot is very 
professional in handling this emergency,  Check the rate of respiration 
and the fact that the camera and some cockpit information systems seem 
to be still working after the aircraft finishes crashing . He gets the 
message about "bingo" fuel after all the parts have stopped moving .
