But take a look at this interview: http://www.jamesandersson.com/interview.html Could be a great web PR spoof - what is missing is the alleged location of the event and witnesses. |

There are numerous videos of this being done with R/C aircraft of the aerobatic type, Extras, Edges etc. So I think it possible. But usually some damage is incurred. link below http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZaXMrFh3n7M |

It is most definitely fakery. If nothing else, the landing "bounce"
is wrong from a physics standpoint. --Noel |

Just a couple of observations: 1) The wing root that's exposed just before the airplane turns around on the runway has no broken spars sticking out of it. Instead, it shows two nice round holes -- which looks just like the wing root of an RC model. In this model class, the wings are connected to the fuselage by aluminum tubes that telescope into fiberglass tubes built into the structure. 2) After the airplane stops, it sits dead level on the gear, even though there's ostensibly a few hundred pounds of wing missing from the other side. rj |

Plus which, neither video shows a single frame of the "damaged" airplane after the incident. rj |
