If They Don’t Tell You How Bad It Is and It’s American Made to Begin With?

Meh. Walk in the proverbial park.

Crap! I forgot the subtitles are in Hebrew!

Israeli Capt Ziv Nedivi brings home his critically wounded F-15 safely after a mid-air collision.

You’ll notice I didn’t say, “and in one piece” because it only had ONE WING.

   Amazing airmanship!

   But I had already come to the conclusion that the engineers came to that the body of the aircraft provides a lot of lift itself. The Tomcat had a similar characteristic and I had talked about it with the Grumman tech reps for our Intruders several times.

   Still, amazing flying. That man has some huevos grande.

   Amazing airmanship. And amazing airship… (takes two to tango.)

   Still, I agree about the huevos grande (an odd expression in literal translation, but I think in English slang it translates to brass balls…)

   I can tell you I’d have ejected first chance. I’m not that brave.

   …I think, in this case, it’s huevos mas grande.
