Wow, I'm glad we don't have pilots like that in the U.S. Its not nice
to disobey orders like "eject". He certainly would have been much
safter to have ejected than trying to control that airplane at low
altitude and then trying to land at 260 knots. He must watch too many
John Wayne movies.
I wonder if he lost his wings. Destroying two jets in one day probably
doesn't look to good on your record.

The History Channel had a program on the F-15 last night
(Friday,040430).
Included was an interview with the Israeli pilot and footage of the
aircraft inbound, on approach and landing.
No other word for it, ... just incredible!
