The only midair collision that resulted in a landing of an F-15 without a wing that I know of was an Israeli F-15B aircraft. The incident happened *at least* 4 years ago. The F-15B lost the entire right wing. I am not sure where it happened, but based on the surrounding area of the picture I saw of it, I was led to believe it was not in the US. ------------- Michael Tighe internet: mjt@super.org uunet: ...!uunet!super!mjt
