Guest Bounder Posted January 27, 2008 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e1aKxAN7bAs from You Tube:A F-15 involved in a mid air collision is landed safely by the pilot. Gota lov the IAF Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sparkomatic 7 Posted January 28, 2008 Do you want the boring monologue about the lifting body effects of the fuselage and combined with the...hey! wake up! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rambler 1-1 9 Posted January 29, 2008 I think it was a combination of awesome stability, the lifting body and the wumbo engines. To quote whoever said it first, "if you give a brick big enough engines, It'll fly, survive an inflight collision and land safely above the top speed of a cessna." This loser on youtube ("Texasfathead" was his screen name) thought this F-15's wing had come off because it was going too fast, and then challanged my flight lead that an F-15 would fall apart if it passed 700mph.

+Viggen 516 Posted January 29, 2008 That is why I love the Eagle. I hate how people keep saying this never happened. And I found this just stupid. And germany doesn't build any jets.... right, in fact, Germany is NOT participating in TOrnado, Eurofighter Typhoon AND ALPHA JET ( your beloved "french" alpha jet) consortiums.... Master of Bull****, that's what you are... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
triplethr3at 0 Posted January 29, 2008 Why do people insist on being pr!cks on the web. Even if he was right theres no need for name calling. That guy deserves a virtual punch in the face. Ps Germany is prety active in the european fighter consortions. They got some prety smart folk living up there. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sparkomatic 7 Posted January 29, 2008 Sometimes I wish I was a Youtube Admin. That would substantially increase your contact with the worse of the lot...think about what must get filtered! I shudder...and are Americans really devolving this rapidly? Ouch! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
crl848 9 Posted January 29, 2008 Not fair, guys. I wasted an hour + reading the comments on that vid. Sad. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JediMaster 451 Posted January 29, 2008 I love how people can not only be wrong but insist on the lives of their family that they're right and won't even back down in the face of proof. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rambler 1-1 9 Posted February 3, 2008 I found another one! This guy insists that "Variable Fighters" (jets that can transform into -you guessed it- giant robots) are the way of the future and can kick the butts of any PRACTICAL fighter because of better thrust and alpha, and of course the fact that they can turn into big, flying, humanoid-shaped robots. WHERE DO THESE GUYS COME FROM?!?!?!?!? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Longestpants 1 Posted February 3, 2008 Why don't we just do away with youtube comments altogether? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mladuna 0 Posted February 4, 2008 (edited) These comments usually kill any joy of watching almost every video. Same thing whit the online editions of newspapers, every article gets commented so much that you usually forget what the article was all about. When I see "Post your comment" or "See comments" I immediately stop scrolling down. Edited February 4, 2008 by Mladuna Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sparkomatic 7 Posted February 4, 2008 yeah...same here, I never read those...what do I care what some idiot thinks? Plenty of idiots to deal with daily to share my limited brain processing time on an idiot I most likely wont meet... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JediMaster 451 Posted February 4, 2008 I only read them when I'm REALLY bored...like at work. However, they are 99% tripe. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
