How to land a plane with one wing..

Notlandung: Der beste Pilot ever!

Check out this pilot land his stunt plane has one its wings fall off..

Posted for entertainment value enjoy...

This video, supposedly depicting a skilled pilot's miraculous landing after one wing snapped off his aircraft during a mid air stunt, is rapidly circulating via email and online. Some viewers apparently believe that the video is genuine footage of a real incident. However, many commentators suggest that all is not what it seems to be. The landing sequence, especially, looks decidedly suspect and most probably depicts a remote control plane rather than a full sized aircraft. The video is almost certainly the result of clever editing and manipulation with full sized and remote controlled aircraft.

The supposed pilot of the aircraft has been identified as one James Andersson. Andersson has his own website which discusses his alleged prowess as a pilot. The site even features an interview in which "Jimmy" talks about the lost wing landing incident. However, there is strong evidence to suggest that both the one winged landing video and and the pilot's website are part of an elaborate advertising scheme launched by German fashion design company killathrill. The killathrill brand name features prominently on the stricken aircraft, supposedly as Andersson's sponsor. The pilot also wears a killathrill jacket during his "interview" about the incident.

Totally amazing......

I've only seen one other video of a plane do that and it was a fighter jet missing most of it's wing.
This guy should go buy a lottery ticket or place a bet on the ponies, he has more luck/skill than most of the rest of us.

I just had to keep watching it over and over. That was totally amazing!

it's not real though is it.

pretty good job, but not real.

seems likes it's viral advertising for killathrill

DO you guys think that is real...

The OP presents it as 'entertainment' Its not real. Its very clear its not real in the vid.

It IS entertaining.

There is an event of an Israli F-15 had a mid air accident, and the enitre right wing was blown off. The plane stayed in flight and landed.

The general gist from what I've been able to research is that the plane is real for part of it. But the landing part with one wing is of either a RC model or a CGI. The pilot coming out of the cockpit was spliced in at the end and is actual.
