Default Losing a wing in flight?


I can't decide.

Did this really happen?

Or is it doctored?

Too much important stuff happens off screen, and the landing
doesn't look real


This incident is fake, however Rockwell Collins is currently working on this
very subject. The following link has a video showing an F-18 scale model
flying with 60 % of the wing missing.
