Love your Xmas avatar - beats NZ sheep. Anyway us Kiwis have lost that particular joke. Here in Aust there are more sheep per head of human population than in NZ now.

NZ has more cattle and cows - so stand by for the cow jokes...........

Have a great New Year Jim - haven't seen you yet on the other site.....let me know what your handle is there by PM

You won't believe it because it did not happen. It is crap.

Cheers,
Peter

That clip has been around for a while. I had checked it on Snopes previously. But from my experience, I know it can't happen. Once a wing is lost, the airplane would be impossible to control and would spiral downward into terra firma,  and ruin the Pilot's day !!!
