Uh oh

Postby jknight8907 » Wed Mar 16, 2005 10:02 pm

Ooops...

And it kept flying quite well! I 'canyon-carving' through trees at mach 1.1, when I clipped the left wing on a tree. The plane  immediately made a sharp left bank, but I corrected and climbed out. While heading to the nearest large airport, I climbed to 14,000 to to a landing-configuration check to see if it would fly that slow it gear and flaps down. Yep, flew great, except I was missing the left main gear. Hey, wonder if this ejection seat still works?? 8)

I'd go with the ejection seat, personally :o

Ace flying if you got it down, though ;)

well at least you survived to tell about it!

Personally I wouldn't want to be flying an airplane that gets that torn up over a bird! I'm hoping that it was a monstrous sized one at least! ;-)

Yes it is. This happend to an Isreali F-15. The whole left wing came off after a collision with a....Palestinian F-4 I think, but bottom line is it landed and the pilot walked away, investigators thought it was a Taxiing accident...so these things happend

In May of 1983, an Israeli F-15 was successfully landed after losing most of its starboard wing in an inflight collision. The plane was repaired and put back into service.

The collision was with an A-4

Hmm...I would say its unrealistic in a Su-34...

...the F-15 have a very wide body, so when its going fast enough, its basically a rocket...

...Su-34 is a different story ::)

"Maverick, I think we hit a bird back there"

Shouldn't it be:

"Kosygin,I think we hit a plane back there"

;D

I think the other way round. The Su-27/34 family was designed with the main fuselage creating additional lift in mind. So it'd have good chances to survive that kind of collision.
